RMIT Beams

The four-storey post and beam timber structure erected for RMIT’s Bundoora Campus was designed, fabricated and installed by Specialised Timber Fabrication to serve as a striking focal point for the university’s newly constructed student accommodation complex.
​
Our own custom ProRafter roof framing system was used along with pre-fabricated floor panels, radiata pine LVL beams and columns over 18 metres in height, making it one of the largest engineered timber structures in the country.
​
The massive exposed LVL timber beams which can be seen from many levels internally as well as from the street, produce a stunning contrast to the surrounding steel and coated aluminium cladding and creates a grand yet comfortable interior.
