Project Type: Fire system installation Fire and Wire were engaged to install the new fire system which had to marry up the old 1910 building with the new building with full functionality. The scope of work, although built in one stage, involved two completely different work zones. Zone one included the complete restoration of an existing heritage listed 1910 fire station. The repurposed two-level building now houses Swinburne’s Innovation Precinct, a central hub on campus with collaborative spaces for entrepreneurial activity. The old fire truck garages now house an IP clinic, prototyping spaces and Design Factory Melbourne studio. Level two houses refurbished administration, staff office and meeting rooms. Zone two included a new, five-level concrete frame extension at the rear of the Fire Station.
