Welcome to the Professional Excellence Awards – National Awards Magazine edition for 2019. I have already attended all Chapter Awards, and have now seen the high level of professionalism and inspirational teams who have delivered some of the best projects judged in 2019.These Awards presented by the Australian Institute of Building, are unique as they focus on the achievements within the construction process. Buildings are rarely constructed to exactly match the design and details first provided. The work of a ‘Building Professional’ involves many unique solutions produced within an operational dynamic that is building construction; while responding to variables like weather, labour resources and materials that are constantly changing. At the same time, a building team performs to imposed time and cost restraints within a contractual relationship. Some of the best examples shown here highlight the additional innovation and problem solving that have occurred beyond the text book methods for structure, services, finishes and end user satisfaction.The results of the Chapter events have again highlighted a year of projects that have extremely high standards in building and construction. Our finalists started this year with our new on-line entry platform, and lodgment system. Our National Judging panel has also responded with the second round of judging of project information. The new platform has allowed efficient review of the ‘best of the best’ from the completed Chapter judging as soon as the NSW Chapter event was completed on 26 July 2019.Distinguishing individual excellence at a National Award level and the Institute’s conferral of a “Professional Excellence Award” is reserved only for those individuals that apply superior knowledge and skill in practice. These awards are a significant achievement in the fact that the work being judged considers the ‘construction process’ and acknowledges the individuals’ ability, skill and professionalism used to deliver a project with excellence. At the close of this process, our National judging panel will have ultimately recognised a small group of building and construction individuals who will be this years’ cohort of National Building Professionals. I must thank our National judges for their dedication to this program, and their expertise and experience; which has been given freely to support the Institute, and the ideals of Professional conduct and Excellence in Construction.At the time of writing, I do not know who will finish up being our National Building Professional for 2019. By the time you read this message, I will actually be congratulating our winners, and meeting you all during the National Award event being held as part of our Constructing our World Conference in Sydney.

Finally, I commend to you the finalists who feature in this publication as being amongst the best in Australia. Please take the time to reflect on the skill, expertise and experience they have demonstrated, in conjunction with their project teams and supporting companies. These examples serve as a benchmark to regulators and those outside the industry that our industry does operate to a professional standard because we encourage professional engagement amongst our peers holding significant experience. All winners who are either Members or Fellows at the time of award, are clearly showing the public, potential customers and regulators an achievement of outstanding recognition as a “Chartered Building Professional”.I look forward to meeting with you at a future AIB event.

2019 BUILDING PROFESSIONAL OF THE YEAR

The Solar Decathlon is the world’s largest international engineering and architectural competition which challenges collegiate teams to design, build and operate net-zero energy solar powered homes. It draws the greatest educational institutes from across the globe to showcase their ideas in their effort to design and construct the most sustainable house using the latest cutting-edge practices and technology.

This competition requires teams to completely assemble and commission their homes in only 15 days. After which the houses undergo 10 days of stringent monitoring and tests where all energy consumption and generation is measured. The houses must maintain an internal temperature between 23°C to 25°C, relative humidity between 35 and 60 per cent and CO2 below 800ppm. The team must simulate normal household activities by operating the tv, boiling water, hot water draws, running the oven, washing and drying clothes, running the dishwasher and even hosting 3 dinner parties. All of these add heat and/or humidity into the internal environment and the houses must generate all their own power via solar PV. During the day hundreds of people are toured through the house resulting in a required designed live floor load of 5.0 kN/m2 whilst only having a maximum soil bearing pressure of 60 kN/m2. All of these pose an extremely difficult challenge on their own and at the end of the competition the houses must be dismantled in only 5 days.

Team UOW took on this challenge but rather than only design for an ecological sustainable viewpoint they took a holistic approach and considered how

the occupants of a building age and how their needs and building requirements change over time. Through practical collaboration between students and industry, Team UOW endeavoured to change the way the world views sustainable housing by building a home that is architecturally inspiring, innovative and adaptive to a person’s needs as they continue to age, creating a house for life.

Throughout 2017-18 over 200 student volunteers from every faculty of the University of Wollongong and many from TAFE NSW went about designing and constructing the Desert Rose house. In this Team UOW designed and built their Desert Rose to exhibit stylish, affordable and sustainable materials and technologies within its design, whilst also focusing on creating a house that accommodates for the needs of the worlds aging population, including those with dementia. In this extraordinary challenge Team UOW was awarded second place overall in the Decathlon as well as gold in Innovation, Comfort Conditions, and Interior Design, silver in Energy Efficiency, BIPV, and Creative Solutions, and bronze in Sustainability, and House Functioning.The house was constructed by and for the University of Wollongong, so no contract was required. The overall project value is approximately $3.5 Million although a significant proportion of this is given through sponsorship and with a significant amount of cash used for shipping the house to Dubai and back and flights and accommodation for students rather than the construction itself. The final value required $2 Million of cash contribution.

Watpac ConstructionANSTO Mo99 Nuclear Medicine FacilityNew South Wales

ANSTO is Australia’s National Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation and the centre of Australian nuclear expertise. ANSTO’s Molybdenum-99 (Mo-99) Nuclear Medicine Facility at the ANSTO Lucas Heights site is part of the Australian Government’s $168 million nuclear medicine plan. Watpac was successful in a competitive tender process and was awarded the contract on 24 January 2014. The original project value was $83m in a Design, Development and Construction Contract based on AS4902 (amended) with Special Conditions.

The new facility replaces an existing plant currently housed at Lucas Heights. The new facility will have three and a half times the capacity of the existing plant and will enhance ANSTO as a major international supplier of Mo-99. The facility is classified by ANSTO’s regulator the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency (ARPANSA) as a ‘Nuclear Installation’ and will therefore be designed to meet the requirements of ARPANSA and Australian Safeguards and Non-proliferation Office (ASNO). The Mo-99 produced will be classified as an Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) hence some areas of the ANM Mo-99 facility must comply with the Code of Good Manufacturing practice (GMP) as regulated by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA).

The Basement Level is a watertight concrete bunker with up to 1000mm deep slabs and up to 900mm thick walls to provide physical shielding to the radioactive liquid and gas waste streams produced during the manufacture of the Mo-99. Additional solid steel shielding was provided

to act as removable covers to various elements including the liquid waste holding tanks, the gas decay tanks and the carbon columns. These removable steel shields provided for access during maintenance as well as providing adequate shielding during normal operations.The Ground Floor is the main production area including 10 Hot Cells. Each hot cell provides a specific purpose in the production stages from dissolution of the irradiated uranium plates in the Dissolution Cell to the packaging of the radioactive Mo-99 liquid (about 40ml) in the lead shielded transport container in the appropriately named Packaging Cell’. The remainder of the ground floor provided for Staff Change Facilities, Truck Airlock, Container Handling (an automated handling area), cGMP rated Laboratories, Plant Rooms and Storage,

Level 1 is dedicated to plant areas, with a mezzanine area providing access to the top of the hot cells as well as containing the facility critical Instrumentation and Control Rooms, housing plc racks, UPS and Comms Rooms. The mezzanine also provides access to the Process Heat Exchange Room which is critical to providing almost boiling demineralised water to the hot cells and recirculating this water through heat exchangers to reheat the circuit.

Externally, the works included a 33m high aluminium exhaust stack, facility air cooled chillers as well as a complex holding tank solution for storage of low-level liquid waste. This storage area comprised 900mm thick concrete walls and 34 interlocking concrete blocks up to 2000Kg configured in 3 interlocking layers, again to provide shielding from radioactivity.
