Case Study: Commercial Carpark
MR P.P.’s Deli and Rooftop Southport
JUNE 2020 MR P.P.’S DELI AND ROOFTOP
The latest installation by TRUEGRID @MR P.P.’s Deli and Rooftop Southport Gold Coast.
The never ending task of increasing a buildings footprint to maximise space and increase profit often weighs heavily on building owners. This installation was unique due to its size and location. Positioned in the Southport CBD on the Gold Coast, MR P.P’s has a zero lot boundary, heritage building on one side, and an inability to connect to storm water without major earthworks.
THE TASK:
1. Increase usable space through minimal excavation
2. Provide a solution that can be used as a hard stand for parking of cars and trucks
3. Provide a cost-effective solution that removes dust and dirt without the need for concrete and allows surface water to naturally penetrate the earth thus removing the need for storm water connection.
THE OUTCOME:
1. Increased the buildings usable footprint by 150m2
2. Provided an additional 6 off street parking spaces in the CBD
3. 2 hours of excavation and installation completed in 6 hours
4. Saving of approx $10,000 against concrete. No storm water connection required
