Level 1 Acoustic & Structural Upgrade | Gold Coast

Delivering a High-Performance Learning Environment

Airey Building Group was engaged by Bond University to complete a specialist acoustic and structural upgrade to the Level 1 High Performance Training Centre (HPTC), enhancing the connection between the HPTC and adjoining balcony while improving both acoustic performance and architectural presentation.

Completed within a five-week construction programme, the project required careful coordination within an operational university environment, with a strong focus on precision, safety and minimising disruption to staff and students. The finished upgrade delivers a contemporary, acoustically enhanced learning environment that aligns seamlessly with Bond University’s premium campus standards.

Project Scope

The project included:

This project required far more than a cosmetic refurbishment. The existing wall and ceiling systems were carefully removed before new structural steel members and heavy-duty framing were installed to support a completely new glazed wall system.

The integration of 12.76mm acoustic glazing significantly improves sound separation between learning spaces while maintaining visual openness and natural light. Combined with premium powder-coated aluminium framing, the finished installation delivers both exceptional acoustic performance and a refined architectural appearance.

Every finish was selected to complement Bond University’s modern architectural language.

The reconstructed wall system incorporates villa board and plywood panels with clean expressed joints, creating a contemporary feature wall that blends seamlessly with the surrounding building.

Custom plasterboard bulkheads, precision painting, timber clear-coat finishes and meticulous detailing complete the project, resulting in a polished, high-quality environment that reflects the University’s commitment to excellence.

Working within a live university environment required detailed planning, strict safety management and close coordination with campus operations.

Airey Building Group carefully programmed the works to minimise disruption to teaching spaces and pedestrian traffic while maintaining the highest standards of workmanship throughout the project.

The successful delivery demonstrates our ability to undertake technically complex refurbishment projects within occupied educational facilities while maintaining programme and quality expectations.
