EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Sutton Forest Meat Building is one of the heritage buildings situated at the center of the
central business district of Sydney City, Australia. The building has served as a business
enterprise for decades, and as at now, the plan by the town management to approve its upgrade to
a 22-story high rise hotel tower is just timely in developing the face of the city.
After successfully secured the tender to contract the upgrade, our company is committed to
delivering the best in project completion within the stipulated timeline. This document contains
the specialized construction procedures of the construction process involving the construction of
the substructures such as excavation, footing construction, basement walling up to the ground
floor slab noting the specific methods to be used with the reasons for their selection.

INTRODUCTION
In the construction process, space is crucial, and space for construction expansion is quite
limited in most of these developed cities such as Sydney hence any structural advancement in
cities calls for the upgrade of the existing structures and buildings to high rise buildings to
conform to the latest trends and designs in architectural and construction space (Horta, Isabel &
Camanho, 2014). This report is to outline and elaborate on the construction procedures that our
company will apply in the whole process of upgrading the Sutton Forest Meat Building in
Sydney central business district to have a postmodern hotel tower on top of the ancient two-story
Sutton forest meet building.

After successfully making applications and complying to the requirements by the Sydney City
Construction authorities, the first stage is to develop the preliminary construction techniques that
involve the method of demolishing the internal elements of existing Sutton Forest meat building,
methods of providing support to the external walls, excavation techniques to attain the proposed
basement required in the proposed high rise building. All these activities have to be carried out
with keen consideration of the existing adjusted buildings to avoid the underpinning of these
buildings (Ling et al. 2015).
This report also gives elaborate details on how proper planning of the available resources
and facilities can be optimized inappropriate measures to achieve the objective of this project,
which is to construct a high rise structure on top of the defunct Sutton Forest Building.

The construction process will best be viewed as the integration of architectural designs.
This strategy involves identifications of readily available and required facilities that would
enable the completion of the project such as the human resources availability, materials, and
machinery needed in the construction process (Volk et al. 2014).
