Aus Struct Services is a dynamic and forward-thinking Company that will endeavour to continually improve its services in the working environment
Aus Struct Services was established in 1996. From our very beginnings we were approached by key corporations to assist them resolving issues with existing facilities, as well as designing and installing new roofing and cladding systems to new facilities also.
As an example – Broken Hill Products approached three leading roofing contractors in 1997 in the Melbourne area to put forward a system to replace the roofs on their manufacturing plant. In removal and replacement of the roof and purlins meeting all the requirements as listed below –
- Design the best Occupational health and safety system for working at heights
- Meet the project programme and budget requirements
- Supply and install a watertight roof system
Aus Struct Services was the Company selected by Blue Scope Steel (formally part of BHP) to undertake the task of replacing the roof and structural purlins on its pickle Line and the Hot strip Mill at its manufacturing plant in Hastings Victoria Australia, a project that was complex and within an operational environment over a period of circa 1997 until 2005.
Aus Struct Services quickly became recognised within the industry as the market leader in providing an intelligent, progressive movement and providing a safer working environment, in major commercial roof replacements and servicing Australia wide.
A high percentage of Aus Struct Services works has been based rectification of new and existing failed Roof Installation (by others), as well as rectification, and making good or replacement of Fragile Roofs and Structural Steel Replacements. Much of which has been possible through our inhouse designed, developed, and Patented a System for “high-risk roof replacement works.
