BESIX Watpac Northern Area Manager Wade Cummins said the system adopted for the project is state-of-the-art.

“On a roof with 35 degrees pitch, safety is paramount so we are deploying an innovative system to ensure worker safety. The system utilises a rolling platform or ‘roof walker’ which travels along the purlins and provides a safe and secure platform from which our workers can operate,” Mr Cummins said.
