Recently, our team worked with
Sahara Roofing to deliver over 15,000m2 of ARAMAX FreeSpan for Netball Central
in Sydney's Olympic Park precinct as part of the $27 million development.
The facilities opening will see netball join a family of 47 other sports currently located at the precinct and represents the largest investment in women’s sport in Australia. During installation, we captured some impressive aerial perspectives of the roof using a flying drone (check it out below).

To install the expansive ARAMAX FreeSpan sheets onto the roof, we used a Spreader Bar to help evenly distribute
the weight of the sheets to safely lever them into the air using a crane. The
sheets themselves span an incredible 141 metres and were created onsite using the
Fielders Mobile Mill roll former.

The
brand new building contains six new state-of-the-art sprung floor courts, plus
gymnasium and sports science facilities, and will be the headquarters for
Netball NSW moving forward.
Fielders
worked with Pro Build, Sahara Roofing, ARUP and Scott Carver Architects to
bring the building to life which will play host to the 2015 World Netball
Championship.
We’ll
be sure to share photos of the completed development on the Fielders
Steel Facebookpage.
