2. Construction Management Approach and Framework
2.1 Approach to Construction Management
Multiplex works with its clients to integrate quality controls and strategies at the earliest opportunity.
Multiplex’s approach to construction management is underpinned by a mature and disciplined culture which is
embraced by its people and driven by what its leaders do and say. Multiplex encourages its people to learn from
each other’s experiences and share best practice.
We take enormous pride in the buildings that we construct. Our teams are made up of highly skilled and
enthusiastic individuals, who all want to produce an outcome that satisfies and where possible, exceeds the Client’s
requirements. We are judged by the quality of our product, not just on the day of completion, but in the years that
follow, so getting it right is essential
Because our reputation rests on the quality and ongoing functionality of our buildings ensuring that they operate at
a high level of quality in the years following completion is an imperative, not only for our clients’ business but also
for our business.

4. Pre-Construction Planning
4.1 Site Working Hours
Based on the new Sydney Fish Market development consent, hours of construction, including the delivery of
materials to and from the site, will be carried out between the following:
» Between 7:00am and 5:30pm Monday to Friday
» Between 7:30am and 3:30pm Saturday
» No working Sundays or public holidays
Activities such as rock breaking, rock hammering, sheeting piling, pile driving and of the like will only be carried out
during the following hours:
» 9:00am and 12:00pm Monday to Friday
» 1:00pm and 5:00pm Monday to Friday
» 9:00am to 1:00pm Saturday
Furthermore, consideration of noisy works on surrounding sensitive receivers in particular Sydney Secondary
College during HSC exam periods will be reasonably mitigated.
For planned ‘out of hours’ work, the Principal and affected stakeholders will be consulted in advance.
4.4 Surveys
A qualified survey team will be engaged throughout the project to ensure works are completed to within building
tolerance. Following completion, all components of the structure will then have ‘as-built’ surveys carried out and
kept as a record for the Project Management Team.
Construction Management Plan | Existing Fish Market Pontoon Relocation and Wharves Work | Appendices 5
For Aboriginal object(s) the Environment, Energy and Science Group of the Department of Planning,
Industry and Environment will be informed in accordance with section 89A of the National Parks and
Wildlife Act 1974. Works will recommence once written authorisation from the Heritage Division is received.
All works will be in line with the Comber Maritime Heritage Impact Statement – July 2021.
4.6 Geotechnical
The proposed site works will be assessed by a reputable Marine Consultant to design the required pile embedment
and sizes. Assessment will be made based on 29245SRPT – JK Geotechnics produced report dated 13/07/2017.
4.7.1 - Power
Additional lighting is to be installed as part of the new pedestrian walkway. These works will involve solar powered
lights which will not require connection to the Sydney Fish Market power infrastructure. A consultative process with
the Fish Market will take place prior to these works occur to limit disruption to the operations of the Sydney Fish
Market.

4.8.3 Emergency Access
The emergency evacuation plan is shown above, in the event of any emergency all workers are to assemble at the
assembly point in front of Vic’s Meats. This is to be coordinate by the Chief and Area Wardens. All Vessels are to
berth to the existing timber wharf and use ladders to assemble at the muster point.
Construction Management Plan | Existing Fish Market Pontoon Relocation and Wharves Work | Appendices 7
New works completed along public interfaces will be protected by restricting public access to finished areas via
appropriate barricades.

5. Site Layout and Logistics
5.1 Site Location
The works are to take place within the Sydney Fish Market which is located at the head of Blackwattle Bay south
east of Anzac Bridge at the intersection of Pyrmont Road and the Western Distributer. Area of works are nominally
around the Sydney Fish Market carpark as well as in the water adjacent the concrete and timber wharves.
Construction Management Plan | Existing Fish Market Pontoon Relocation and Wharves Work | Appendices 9
5.2 Site Hoardings and Boundaries
The boundaries of the site will be the ATF fencing for all land based works indicated in the extent of the pink and for
all marine based activities, localised silt curtains around each marine activity. To the south west of the work area,
the New Sydney Fish Market Silt curtain is present.
Construction Management Plan | Existing Fish Market Pontoon Relocation and Wharves Work | Appendices 10
details. Upon the end of every work shift, the site compound will be locked using a padlock system and all marine
vessels are required to return to the New Sydney Fish Market Multiplex Site or off-site.
Concrete Wharf Pile Install– A marine based workzone, which will be delineated with a localised silt
curtain to install two Steel Piles. A dumb barge will be used to supplement the crane barge SMC 2 in order
to install these piles. A consultation process will be had with the Sydney Fish Market to enable clear access
to the northern part of this wharf in order to limit disruption to current operations of the trawlers.
Construction Management Plan | Existing Fish Market Pontoon Relocation and Wharves Work | Appendices 11
Pontoon Relocation Works – A marine based workzone, which will be delineated with a localised silt
curtain to conduct approximately 350m3 of sediment profiling, installation of 2 piles to allow for the existing
public pontoon to be relocated to the existing timber wharf and relocation of the wharf including dismantle
of wharf at current location, and re-instate at new location at the existing timber wharf. A consultation
process will be had with the Sydney Fish Market in order to have the northern side of the timber wharf to be
clear to allow these works to take place.
Construction Management Plan | Existing Fish Market Pontoon Relocation and Wharves Work | Appendices 12
Pedestrian Pathway for Relocated Public Pontoon - As part of the above works, a new pedestrian pathway
will be required to connect the relocated pontoon to the Sydney Fish Market, this will provide pedestrian
access similar to what is currently there at the existing Public Pontoon. The materials handling will be
through the Fish Market carpark with coordination of vehicle deliveries to be communicated to the Fish
Markets.
Construction Management Plan | Existing Fish Market Pontoon Relocation and Wharves Work | Appendices 13
Timber Wharf Upgrade Works – Due to the relocation of the Fishing Fleet to the Timber Wharf and as a
result of a Structural Assessment of the timber wharf, 8 additional steel piles are required to be installed to
allow for the vessels to be able to moor to the piles. The work zone, similar to the concrete wharf works will
be delineated with a localised silt curtain to install the Steel Piles. A dumb barge will be used to supplement
the crane barge SMC 2 in order to install these piles. A consultation process will be had with the Sydney
Fish Market to enable clear access to this wharf and limit disruption to the Sydney Fish Markets.
Construction Management Plan | Existing Fish Market Pontoon Relocation and Wharves Work | Appendices 14
5.6.2 Material Lay Down and Storage Areas
All material for the pedestrian pathway works will be stored in the land based area within the ATF fenced zone
shown in green (for machinery, asphalt and tools). All marine based works will be stored using a support dumb
barge (piles, HDPE sleeves and mooring bollards to be used).
Construction Management Plan | Existing Fish Market Pontoon Relocation and Wharves Work | Appendices 15
» Reduce: use reusable or recycled products where practicable. All subcontractors are responsible for
minimising packaging, pre-cutting material to length and removing their own packaging and reusable items from
site such as pallets
» Reuse: reuse construction, demolition or green waste materials on site where practicable
» Recycle: provide waste to construction material recovery facilities where possible. A system to record
recycling statistics will be implemented to demonstrate compliance with targets set out as per the Ecologically
Sustainable Development Report, prepared by Wood and Grieve, dated 26 September 2019.
» Dispose appropriately: materials that cannot be recycled should be classified and disposed of at a local
licensed facility in accordance with the EPA’s Waste Classification Guidelines Part 1: Classifying Waste 2009. The
selected waste contractor will provide a list of nominated locations for disposal as well as certificates to certify
delivery of waste each month

6. Construction Methodology
6.1 Staging
The staging of the project will be separated into the land based works consisting of the pedestrian walkway and the
marine based works consisting of the concrete wharf works, pontoon relocation and timber wharf works.
The Land Based portion of works will be staged working from North to South, starting at the end closer to the
timber wharf to set and start the level of the walkway, then continue to the south, eventually joining in with the
existing pathway within the carpark. There will a manned access gate into the work zone to allow plant and
materials to be moved in and out of the work zone. Refer Below for indicative staging of works.
The Marine Based portion of works will be staged working starting firstly with piling works being completed at the
concrete wharf, then for the pontoon relocation and finally the timber wharf structural upgrade piles. The staging of
marine works is largely dictated by plant movement and minimising disruption to the Sydney Fish Market. The
majority of works will be completed by the SMC 2, a piling barge for all the pile installation with an Excavator Barge
to conduct the sediment re-profiling.
The staging for the works is as follows:
1. Install Concrete Wharf Piles and HDPE Sleeves, Excavator Barge will complete sediment redistribution
activity while SMC 2 is driving piles for the concrete wharf.
2. Install Pontoon Relocation Piles and HDPE Sleeves
3. Relocate Pontoon
4. Install Timber Wharf Additional Piles and HDPE Sleeves
Construction Management Plan | Existing Fish Market Pontoon Relocation and Wharves Work | Appendices 17
6.2 Concrete Wharf Pile Install Methodology
The Concrete Wharf Pile Install Methodology will be as follows:
1. Consultation with Sydney Fish Market for Clear Area noted to enable works to be completed and agree
date of works.
2. Mobilise SMC2 (Piling Crane Barge) and Dumb Barge (Materials Handling Barge) to the workzone.
3. Set-up Localised Silt Curtain and a turbidity monitor around pile install area and investigate seabed to
ensure area is clear for pile installation.
4. Install Southern Steel Pile (508 dia.) by using vibratory hammer to vibrate to refusal then use a hammer to
drive pile to required embedment.
5. SMC2 installs HDPE sleeves to Steel Pile
6. Repeat steps 3 – 5 for the Northern Pile.
7. Install mooring cleats to piles using a third barge and workboat.
Construction Management Plan | Existing Fish Market Pontoon Relocation and Wharves Work | Appendices 18
6.3 Public Pontoon Relocation Methodology
The Public Pontoon Relocation Methodology will be as follows:
1. Consultation with Sydney Fish Market for Clear area noted to enable works to be completed and agree on
date of works.
2. Mobilise Excavator Barge with Hopper to site on day of agreed works, silt curtain to be maintained around
barge for the duration of the works.
3. Use excavator barge to sediment re-profile up to 350m3 of material from intended new pontoon relocation
to area designated to North Western corner of timber wharf.
4. Note: All works will be completed under the assumption that soils are Potential Acid Sulphate Soils and
require management in accordance with the procedures in the JBS&G Acid Sulphate Management Plan,
the controls that will be put in place are a single localised silt curtain with a turbidity monitor to undertake
continuous water quality monitoring.
5. Complete Bathymetric Survey to confirm levels have been achieved.
6. Mobilise SMC2 (Piling Crane Barge) and Dumb Barge (Materials Handling Barge) to the work zone.
