Southern Cross Station (Spencer St) Grimshaw Architects


Southern Cross Entrance


Inside showing its distinct wave roof


Main frame of the roof structure (pre fabricated to engineers specs) , brace supports connected to main beams


Pre-welded tabs on the braces and main beams allow connection using x2 M12 high tensile bolts, washers and nuts. This prevents the need for as much welding on site.
Rivets can also be seen in the background connecting the colourbond steel together.
