LDS Temple

TEC provided construction monitoring services to CM4 level for the stone facade structural support system of this impressive temple over a two-and-a-half-year period. This involved regular site visits to inspect the steel Hilti channel framing structure, structural fixings to the primary and secondary building structure, stone support brackets and pins, and the Gardenia White Granite stone panels. Design variations from the original PS1 design were necessary to address as-built primary concrete structures and to accommodate on-site coordination with building services and glazing requirements. TEC also designed the stone lining for the grand internal staircase and balustrades, ensuring the construction accuracy of the stone facade and structural support system. This was formalised in the issuance of the PS4 package, which included all site visit reports, corrective action registers, CANS, variation design calculations, and QA documentation necessary for the CCC application. The completed temple is a striking landmark, clearly visible from Auckland’s southern motorway.
