Background
The Albany Waterfront Tavern was undergoing some extension works as planned by the Architect for the site. As the new extensions planned to enclose the existing Western Power transformer on-site the expert services of Design Consultancy were engaged to provide professional advice on this matter.
Project detail
Design Consultancy reviewed the architectural plans for the building extensions and provided clear and specific advice, based on both Western Power requirements and Australian Standards, on what options could be used to enclose the substation. The Architect produced plans and as part of the service Design Consultancy reviewed the plans for conformity to the advice provided.
