Last week, we explored how the Amundsen Scott South Pole Station operates without public utilities. One question naturally followed... Where does the water come from? Most of us don't think twice about turning on a tap. At the South Pole, every litre of water has to be created. There are no rivers, lakes or underground aquifers. Instead, engineers melt compacted Antarctic snow deep below the surface to create an underground water reservoir known as a Rodwell. Rather than cont

After a short break, we're bringing back This Month in Engineering, where we explore the projects, innovations and engineering milestones that continue to shape the built environment. This time, we're heading to the South Pole. Most of us don't think twice about turning on a tap, flicking a light switch or flushing a toilet. At the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, none of those things happen without carefully engineered systems working behind the scenes. There is no electri

As Castle Hill continues to evolve into one of Sydney's key transport-oriented centres, the proposed redevelopment at 16–20 Old Castle Hill Road reflects the changing character of the Hills District. Located just moments from Castle Hill Metro Station, the development has been designed to deliver new homes, including affordable housing, alongside retail activation, landscaped communal spaces and an improved public domain that supports a more connected and walkable community.

Construction is now underway at The Harvey, Moorebank, marking an exciting milestone for this residential development by UFN. Goldfish & Bay is proud to be providing the project's Hydraulic, Mechanical, Electrical, Wet & Dry Fire Engineering, together with ASP3 Level 3 Electrical services. Our multidisciplinary team is working closely with the wider project team to deliver coordinated building services that support efficient design, construction and long term building perform

Engineering doesn't stop when a project is issued for construction. Materials evolve. Standards change. Products improve. Better engineering decisions come from understanding not just what a product does, but why it was developed, where it performs best, and the challenges it is designed to solve. Earlier this week, our hydraulic team welcomed Hydroflow Distributors (Aust) Pty Ltd to the Goldfish & Bay office for a technical Lunch & Learn exploring the Saint-Gobain PAM Ensign

The first stage of the development will deliver approximately 150 new homes, forming part of a master planned precinct expected to provide more than 500 apartments and 250 co-living dwellings. Affordable housing, specialist disability accommodation, activated retail spaces and public domain improvements have been integrated throughout the vision, creating a development designed to support a diverse and connected community. Positioned within the Wollongong CBD and close to key
