The Project
Impressions from the project process
The three ITS high-rise towers for the centre of the ambitious Barangaroo South project in the Sydney harbour area.
With the Barangaroo Point Reserve (North), Central Barangaroo and Barangeroo South sub-projects, Sydney´s city centre is being expanded westwards by an impressive 22 hectares. In the foreground is the three ITS high-rise towers are rising steadily upwards; in the background is the famous Sydney Opera House with its distinctive roof structure.
Over 700 linaer metres of PERI LPS enclosure secure and accelerate construction work on the three high-rise towers - up to the final height of 217 m.
The LPS protection panel units are up to 18.50 m high and are climbed by means of mobile climbing hydraulics to the next floor without requiring a crane.
Key components of the PERI climbing solution are two RCS landing platforms on each tower that have been integrated into the LPS enclosure and supplemented with additional protective meshes.
The LPS enclosure nestles closely to the building also in circular sections areas - and thus ensures safe working conditions in the floors under construction as well as the areas of risk below.

Site Manager
The collaboration between Lend Lease Structures and PERI to develop a system which accommodated our comprehensive safety requirements was greatly appreciated. PERI has worked closely with us and their continued site service has been a valuable resource when called upon. The added benefit of hydraulics on the LPS system enabled us to free up crane time and helped us in achieving our tight programme.
