Hilton Convention Centre, South Bank Melbourne

To provide a secure decking support system and to reduce the structural weight on large outdoor terrace areas.

Supplied by Ken Hitchcock Designs and installed by 2 Construct, VersiJack eliminated the use of heavy masonry block work supports thereby substantially reducing the weight bearing load on the building structure. Another major advantage of VersiJack is that during the installation process, the membrane is not penetrated in any way. This reduces the long-term likelihood of hard-to-fix leaks occurring, which are traditionally very costly and difficult to access.

VersiJack is infinitely adjustable from 75-1000mm and incorporates a bearer support that accommodates even warped 40-80mm wide bearers.

Customs House, Customs Harbour Branch – Singapore

To provide the Green Wall system for the installation of a 2-storey high green wall that would serve as part of a decorative façade to hide unsightly building features.

Elmich Green Wall was installed together with wooden paneling on both sides of it to effectively hide a utility stairway. The green wall enhances the aesthetic of the façade and also provides shade for the stairway. The unique set up of this installation allows the rear of the green wall, including the drip irrigation system installed, to be accessible and conveniently maintained from the stairway behind the green wall.

HDB HUB Exhibition Gallery – Singapore

To install indoor green wall panels along the spiral stairway leading from the basement gallery to the building’s first storey.

Elmich Vertical Greening Modules (VGMs) were pre-planted in a nursery environment with plants suitable for indoor green wall installation. This ensures that the plants are firmly established and sufficiently pre-oriented to growing out of a vertical environment. The VGMs are anchored onto pilasters secured along the wall of the spiral staircase to form poster-like green wall panels.

A drip irrigation system is incorporated in the system and drainage trays placed below the base of the panels to collect and channel excess water. Artificial lighting, installed on the opposite facing wall and directed at the grren wall, provides the plants with adequate light for healthy plant growth.

The green wall poster-panels help to publicise the Housing Development Boards efforts in promoting the greening of Singapores public housing estates.

Marina Bay City Gallery – Singapore

To provide two indoor green wall panels in the City Gallery, behind the reception counter and the Marina Bay table model.

Elmich Green Wall System was specified for this project. About four months before the system was scheduled to be installed, pre-planting using the Vertical Greening Modules (VGMs), geotextile bag and soil-less lightweight planting media was done at a nursery. This allows firm establishment and pre-orientation of specially selected indoor plants to a vertical format prior to installation. On site, the VGMs are secured in metal support frames and mounted onto pilasters fastened to the wall.

A drip irrigation system is incorporated in the system and a drainage gully installed at the base of the walls to collect and channel excess water. Artificial lighting is provided above the walls to provide the plants with an adequate source of light for healthy plant growth.

A distinctive design feature of the green walls is the flat beams on the walls that artistically connect the lines formed by the supporting pillars of the second floor. This creates a visual flow of lines between the first and second floors.

Hotel Michael, Resorts World Sentosa – Singapore

To provide a 3-storey high Green Wall system to be installed along the beverage alley, which serve patrons of the Casino located within Hotel Michael.

Anchoring pilasters were installed directly onto the wall for the installation of nine 3-storey high green walls, alternating between water features, along the beverage alley beside the Hotel. To allow selected plants to be firmly established, VGMs comprising a geotextile bag filled with soil-less lightweight planting media were pre-planted in a nursery environment. On site, the VGMs were secured in metal support frames and mounted onto the pilasters, with a drip irrigation system installed. The VGM modular green wall system allows individual modules to be dismounted and remounted, facilitating easy maintenance and replacement.

The green walls keep the ambient temperature along the alley cool and provide an aesthetically pleasing green ambience to an otherwise concrete narrow build-up area.
