Caulfield Grammar School's Teaching and Learning Building is an $80M, five-storey landmark for education in St Kilda, designed to foster connection, collaboration, and discovery across every level of the campus. 
PROJECT OVERVIEW
The Teaching and Learning Building at Caulfield Grammar School is a five-storey structure with a partial basement, delivering approximately 12,000sqm of gross floor area across a diverse mix of learning environments. Designed by DesignInc and 3XN, the $80M facility completed in 2024 and accommodates general classrooms, specialist laboratories, an auditorium, incubator spaces, and an open atrium connecting all five floors. The building serves as the new heart of the St Kilda campus, integrating with the broader school masterplan.
SCOPE OF WORK
TTW provided Structural and Civil Engineering services for the project. The structural solution centres on a concrete frame with post-tensioned band beams and slabs, selected to suit the building’s stepped profile. The central atrium was designed with long clear spans and very few columns, delivering an elegant and cost-effective solution that preserves an open, column-free ground plane.
TTW’s Civil team worked closely with the architects and landscape team to resolve significant gradients across the site, ensuring full DDA compliance throughout. The result is an integrated civil and landscape design response that ties the new building seamlessly into the existing campus and future masterplan.
