BEHIND THE iCIRT RATING | In Conversation with Equifax

Choosing an engineering consultant means trusting both their technical expertise and the business behind it.

That was the focus of our recent visit to Equifax’s North Sydney office, where Goldfish & Bay was invited to share our experience of the iCIRT assessment process in a filmed interview.

Our Director, Joseph Kong, spoke about why we pursued independent assessment, the work involved and the value of our 4.5 star rating for clients and project partners.

We undertook the process to have our governance, professional processes and approach to project delivery independently reviewed. The assessment required detailed information about our financial position, operations and business systems. It also prompted us to examine how we work and where we could continue improving.

For our clients, this provides another way to assess the organisation they are appointing. Alongside experience, technical capability and project relationships, it offers an independent perspective on the business responsible for delivering their engineering services.

As consultants whose design decisions influence building safety, performance and ongoing operation, we believe that level of scrutiny has a meaningful place in our industry.

We appreciated the opportunity to work with the Equifax iCIRT team on this interview and contribute an engineering perspective to the conversation about trust and accountability in construction.

Thank you to the team for the invitation and warm welcome. We look forward to sharing more from the session.

LAKEVIEW LONG JETTY | In seniors living, good design considers how residents' needs may change and how their homes will continue to support them. Building services are part of that thinking, from heating and ventilation to lighting, hot water and fire protection.

Overlooking Tuggerah Lake on the NSW Central Coast, Lakeview Long Jetty is a seniors living development by Surewin, designed by ADG Architects. Landscaped communal spaces and a covered connection to Diggers The Entrance bring opportunities to gather and stay connected to an established local community.

Goldfish & Bay's scope with Buildex Develop and Construct brings together hydraulic, mechanical, electrical, and wet and dry fire engineering for the construction design phase.

Our role is to translate the services requirements into coordinated designs that can be built and maintained. That means resolving equipment locations, service routes and connections across disciplines, while allowing space for installation and future maintenance.

Through Revit modelling and BIM coordination, these details are considered together within the architectural design. Identifying conflicts during documentation helps reduce late changes and avoidable rework on site, giving the construction team clearer information to work from.

For residents, the value carries beyond construction: comfortable homes supported by carefully planned building systems. For the project team, it starts with engineering decisions made before installation.

GOLDFISH & BAY | ROOFTOP FRIDAYS 🏀

Some Friday afternoons are better spent away from the desk.

Our monthly rooftop BBQ and basketball afternoons are becoming a bit of a tradition at Goldfish & Bay, and we’re certainly not complaining.

A few games on the court, something sizzling on the BBQ, plenty of laughs and the occasional questionable basketball skills. All with a pretty good view of Petersham.

It’s a simple way to finish the month, catch up with colleagues and enjoy some time together without talking about deadlines or what’s next on the project list.

Good food, good company and a little friendly competition. We’re getting pretty good at making this a monthly habit.

See you on the rooftop next month!

CARSS PARK POOL | BRINGING COMMUNITY SWIMMING BACK

The return of Carss Park Pool follows years of community advocacy after the original facility closed in 2019. Now under construction, its replacement will bring a place for swimming lessons, training and recreation back to the local area.

Goldfish & Bay is working with Encore Plumbing to provide hydraulic and wet fire engineering for the redevelopment, which is being delivered by ADCO Constructions and designed by TKD Architects. Our role includes coordinating services with the wider project team and preparing the design documentation to support construction.

The new facility will feature a heated outdoor 50 metre pool with eight lanes and a swim wall that allows it to operate as two 25 metre pools. A separate heated and shaded learn to swim pool will include accessible ramp entry, complemented by new change rooms, family facilities and shaded spectator seating. Together, these spaces will accommodate swimmers building confidence in the water alongside those training and swimming regularly.

Led by the NSW Office of Sport on behalf of Georges River Council, the project is scheduled to open in late 2027. We’re pleased to contribute our engineering expertise to a project driven by the community’s determination to bring its pool back.

ENGINEERING INSIGHTS | What If a Building Could Cool Itself Before the Air Conditioning Even Starts?

The Saharan silver ant’s tiny triangular hairs help reflect sunlight and release heat. Researchers have drawn inspiration from these structures to develop materials that reduce solar heat gain while allowing thermal energy to radiate away.

For buildings, the potential is practical: less heat entering means less heat for air conditioning to remove. Performance depends on the climate, materials and building design, but the idea offers another way to reduce cooling demand.

SHOWGROUND PAVILIONS | Castle Hill, NSW

873 new homes. A $1 billion residential precinct. A project we’re proud to help deliver.

Deicorp’s latest construction update captures the scale of Showground Pavilions and the progress being made as structural works advance and building services installation gets underway.

Goldfish & Bay is contributing across the development, with our involvement spanning hydraulic, mechanical, electrical and fire engineering, together with CFD modelling.

Designed by TURNER STUDIO and GroupGSA, the precinct will bring new homes and 3,500 square metres of public open space to Castle Hill, alongside Hills Showground Metro and the neighbouring Hills Showground Village.

For our team, this update represents design decisions, detailed coordination and many hours of work now taking physical shape. We’re proud of our engineers’ contribution and pleased to share this progress alongside Deicorp and the wider project team.

MARRICKVILLE TIMBERYARDS | Marrickville, NSW

Bay is pleased to be working with DASCO Australia on Marrickville Timberyards, a major new rental precinct in Sydney’s Inner West.

Developed by The Living Company, the $1.5 billion project is set to deliver 1,180 apartments across seven buildings, with homes ranging from studios to four bedrooms.

The design draws on Marrickville’s industrial heritage, bringing housing together with retail, creative spaces and new public areas that will open the site to the surrounding community.

Our involvement spans hydraulic and civil engineering, including hydraulic construction design and support throughout construction.

We look forward to working alongside the DASCO team as this significant project takes shape.

ENGINEERING INSIGHTS | At Marina Bay Sands, around 1.4 million litres of water sit almost 200 metres above ground, across three towers that move differently.

The pool uses separate stainless steel shells, movement joints and more than 500 adjustable support points to accommodate that movement and allow relevelling over time. Along its 146 metre infinity edge, even changes in level affect how water spills over.

It is a coordination challenge familiar to building services engineers: pipework, drainage and equipment connections must accommodate movement in the structure around them.
