17 Spring Street

Constructing 74 luxury residences across 32 levels with a four-level basement in Melbourne's CBD required managing extreme excavation depth alongside high-rise construction, all within a confined site envelope. The $300M Hacer project's premium residential market positioning meant client expectations for safety management matched the development's luxury status, with monthly HSE Committee oversight demanding comprehensive reporting and action closeout.

Four-level basement excavation in Melbourne CBD meant managing shoring systems, groundwater, and excavation depth risks before any vertical construction could commence. The transition from deep excavation to 32-level high-rise construction required constant re-evaluation of safety protocols, while luxury residential fit-out quality expectations added pressure to maintain pristine safety conditions throughout final stages.

Elliott Safety's initial documentation review established Hacer's safety framework before excavation commenced, then monthly HSE site audits tracked performance from basement excavation through to luxury apartment fit-out.

Our attendance at monthly client HSE Committee meetings provided direct stakeholder communication, while systematic action closeout ensured identified issues were resolved before escalation.
