Windows

Q. Where can I find information on Steel window framing used in Australia between 1920 and 1960's in "modern" style buildings and up to the 1970's for fire rated construction?

A. Steel Window Frames Australia, Joe Dinallo, in Henderson Road
Alexandria, used to supply and manufacture steel and galvanized steel
frames from standard rolled sections. The number used to be 511226, fax
5193147 but that may have changed. Some of these sections are also
available from Melbourne and in stainless and bronze. RG

Construction Experience

I was on a building site by age four. I am in blue and my sister is in red. We are having a site meeting, obviously. The site. Old Bar Road, Taree.Web_oldbarRdconstruction.jpg
This photo gives new meaning to the term 'doing housework'. My sister was standing on our front stairs. I will hasten to add the only purpose the house was serving at that time was for HSC study and for piano practice.WebBelmontHusvork.jpg
The following is de-construction. I removed by hand the enamel someone had had painted this car with. At this time I was working for my father helping him fix cars.Webmycar.jpg
I finshed My architecture degree and my sister started working for Ove Arup in Sydney. Then my sister and I had a crazy idea. Let's build a house. I was the "owner builder". Had a sign to prove it. The results of this effort are in the project section under Own House. The site Pennant Hills.Web_buildinghills.jpg
