Derinya Primary School

The refurbishment of Derinya Primary School involved both demolition and renovations to the existing structures. With a goal of modernizing the space to ensure the best possible environment for both students and teachers. The project provides the school with state of the art classroom facilities while making use of the pre existing structure to get maximal space within learning areas.
The structure is lightweight and consists of both a steel and timber roofing frame and a hybrid steel timber posi-joist first floor. The slab of the building is suspended on piles with a blockwall retaining wall forming the perimeter.

To incorporate the new structure into the existing form the team encountered numerous stepping levels that had to be adjusted to the adjacent height of the existing structure. Additionally as this project used a light frame the team worked hard to resolve the fire compliance issues amongst the existing building and the lightweight materials.

ANDREW GALL, Director

Argall was founded in 2017 by Andrew Gall, an engineer with a passion for complex design and breaking the mould. His work experience as a senior structural engineer across a variety of project disciplines made him realise there was a real need for a bespoke people and service-oriented structural engineering consultancy that would inspire sustainability practices and innovation often lacking in big companies.

This is over and above his experience in traditional procurement roles, his work with builders in the design and construct field, managing projects in sport, tertiary education, the arts and zoological fields, as well as community, commercial, residential and multi- residential enterprises. With such a wealth of knowledge and understanding of different design methodologies, he has the expertise to challenge the status quo in his new venture.
