Overview

Mary Mclean Place Housing Complex (Mary Mclean Place) is a social housing complex located at 202a Opawa Road, Woolston, Christchurch 8023. It contains 40 residential units which were constructed in 1969. There are 10 blocks on site with each block containing 4 units.

The roof structure comprises timber roof beams supporting light-weight metal roofs. Internal walls and ceilings are lined with plasterboard and external walls are clad with a brick veneer with small portions on the external walls of the bathroom and above and below the windows clad with light-weight Harditex-type cladding. Each block has a perimeter foundation with ordinary concrete piles supporting a timber floor.

The units are separated by 190mm concrete block fire walls which (based on information available) have reinforcement to the perimeter. There are two precast concrete double chimneys in each block of four units, these are connected to the fire wall and shared between neighbouring units.

Mary Mclean Place has suffered minor damage to non-structural elements and cracking to perimeter foundations as a result of the earthquakes that have occurred in Christchurch over recent years.

As a high level summary, the effective reinstatement of the complex requires the following works:

• Strengthening works to increase the seismic capacity of all buildings;
• Checking the veneer ties of veneer at height (gable ends);
• Re-levelling Block E and straightening the timber framing to relieve the residual stresses induced by the stretching action of the floor structure;
• Replacement of the existing fire walls in Block’s E & F (between units 17-18 and units 23-24) with lightweight replacements and the complete removal of the existing chimneys;
• Removing of chimneys to at least ceiling level; and
• Cosmetic repairs.
