In-Service History

Auckland Art Gallery:

The 2011 project to redevelop the Auckland Art Gallery sought to refurbish and strengthen the much loved building, increase the exhibition space by 75% and create terraces linking the spacious entrance fourecourt to the nearby Albert Park.The high Kauri-like canopies allowed rain running into the forecourt and there was overspill from a featured fountain. To make sure that excess surface water did not enter the building, designers were required to provide adequate drainage. With the restricted depth of the site ACO’s shallow depth SlabDrain was used to manage these constraints and provide an effective drainage solution.
