Based in Australia, Newcrest Mining is one of the world’s leading gold mining companies. Newcrest selected SCC Construction to lead the design / build team to construct their new 13,200 sf Canadian headquarters in the Oceanic Plaza, located in the heart of Vancouver’s downtown business district.
The renovated space was completely modernized with subtle design elements reflecting the connections between the business, the land, and the Indigenous peoples. Flexible work areas, breakout rooms, muti-use spaces and state of the art IT and A/V systems provide exceptional functionality for an array of business activities.
Newcrest Mining is a company dedicated to sustainability
and corporate responsibility, leading the way in the global mining industry.
Through initiatives such as implementing renewable energy solutions at their
mining sites, Newcrest actively reduces carbon emissions and environmental
impact. Their adoption of advanced water recycling technologies not only
conserves water but also promotes efficient resource use. Newcrest engages with
local communities supporting development projects that improve quality of life.
The workspace was designed with flexibility in mind,
featuring adaptable work areas, designated breakout rooms, and versatile spaces
that cater to various business needs. This flexibility not only enhances
operational efficiency but also promotes collaboration and creativity among
employees. State-of-the-art IT and audiovisual systems were integrated
throughout the headquarters to further support productivity and ensure a
vibrant center for innovation.
The project began with a kickoff meeting to establish
goals, timelines, and expectations. Following this, the team collaborated with Demolition Impossible for the controlled demolition phase. This was crucial to clear out the existing infrastructure safely and prepare for the new layout.
Next, the focus shifted to infrastructure decommissioning, including electrical and plumbing systems. Once cleared, the
framing phase commenced, where structural frameworks was
installed to delineate new office areas.
With the groundwork laid, the plumbing and HVAC rough-in stages began, ensuring that essential services were integrated into the renovated space. Simultaneously, the electrical rough-in ensured adequate power distribution throughout the office.
Throughout the project, stringent inspections were conducted after each major phase to verify compliance with safety and
building regulations. This included inspections for plumbing, electrical, and framing work.
Special attention was given to critical areas such as the server room, where setup was essential to support the office’s IT
infrastructure. Network implementation followed suit, ensuring robust connectivity across the premises.
The construction phases progressed with the installation of drywall, followed by taping, mudding, and sanding to achieve
smooth and seamless surfaces. Painting and installation of flooring and fixtures brought aesthetic and functional elements together.
The project culminated in a series of final inspections to ensure that all systems were operational and met the client’s specifications. This included comprehensive checks of electrical, plumbing, and overall structural integrity.
