Next Building Workshop
Rebuilding with Steel Forum
Wednesday 28th October 7.00 – 9.00pm
Arthur’s Creek Mechanics Institute Hall.
906 Arthurs Creek Road, Arthurs Creek
Rebuilding with steel products can be of benefit in our area as steel is strong, termite proof, and non combustible.
The ninth co-operative venture between the Strathewen and St Andrews Rebuilding groups will be a forum for people who are thinking about rebuilding with light steel products including cladding, frames, and tanks and who are looking for information and advice regarding light steel products.
Presentations will include:
· Bluescope Steel. Bluescope will present on their products and their suitability for use in rebuilding in rural and fire prone areas. They will present on items including roofing, tanks, and cladding, and rainwater collection.
· Steel Frame Solutions. Mr. John Shayler will present on steel framed dwellings. He will cover what steel framed homes are and how they are made, and how they are suited for bushfire prone areas.
The forum will consist of a short presentation from each presenter with question time after, and then the opportunity to speak in small round table groups with presenters.
A range of questions will be answered with particular attention paid to:
· Products for use in rural areas and bushfire prone areas
If there’s something you want to know which isn’t on the list simply include these questions with your RSVP and we will endeavour to provide the information you need. Let your neighbors know and please let us know how many are coming so we can cater.
Supper is provided afterwards which provides a chance to speak with other residents going through the same process.
Please RSVP (so we can arrange catering) to
