CLUB HOUSE EXTENSION DESIGN SYDNEY

AAPAC DESIGNBUILD has done a club house design
for an extension to a Chinese
clubhouse located above a bookstore on Sussex Street, Haymarket,
Sydney. The club house design project involved creating
recreation area,
offices, store room and toilet facilities to an existing
clubhouse. The club house extension project was complex because
the second storey
site was enclosed by neighbouring buildings on 4 sides. The
club house extension had to be built on top of the roof of a bookstore
below. The club extension works had to be carried out while the
clubhouse, the
bookstore and jewellery shop below were maintained in full operation. The original club house
design required the use of a crane to bring long structural material
into the site over surrounding buildings. We helped the client to
save substantial cost by redesigning the layout and structural system
so that material could be brought to the site through a
single door on street level and a staight flight stair case of 1m
wide, instead of using cranes.
The
club house extension
design was of cold formed steel floor joists, steel columns, cold
formed steel roof structure, aerated concrete block external wall and
colorbond metal deck roof. The club house design for interior was
particle board timber
flooring, steel stud plasterboard partitions, suspended acoustics tiled
ceiling. A ducted air conditioning system was installed to
the new extension and the existing portion of the clubhouse. A
club house refurbishment design was done for the interior of the
existing portion so that club refurbishment work could be done at the
same
time.
