Axis Services VIC on behalf of BESIX Watpac undertook the hydraulic services on the ACU Mother Teresa project.

Value: $3,200,000

BESIX Watpac are building a state-of-the-art, 13-storey tower at the Australian Catholic University’s Fitzroy campus that will provide a combination of centralised teaching facilities and informal learning spaces, a library, congregational hub and shared facilities.

Works also include constructing three additional levels over the heritage-listed Mary Glowrey Building.

Prioritising the safety of students and staff, installation of the heavy structures for the overbuild took place over summer when no one was on campus.
