Constructionarium Australia exists to help the next generation of infrastructure, engineering and construction professionals to gain skills and build networks by working on a real project.
Constructionarium Australia runs build programs throughout the year, often coinciding with university holidays. Each build provides a unique 8-day learning and development experience for undergraduates and emerging professionals (fresh graduates, those in graduate/cadet positions at any infrastructure-related company, or those a few years into their career) as they experience an entire construction project from tender to client handover.
Our Queensland program takes place at the Construction Training Centre in Salisbury.
In 2016 we undertook our first build, a replica Barcelona Tower. Currently, we use two structures, a replica Story Bridge and a replica Eleanor Schonell Bridge which was used for the first time in 2022. In late 2024 we introduced an exciting new structure - a pumped hydro build (water battery).
Our Victorian Big Build program launched in 2022 and is now based at Hallam. The program utilises a bespoke structure that commemorates the achievements of bridge design and construction across the state - the Big Build Bridge. In July 2024 we introduced the Big Build Rail Station, and we will be introducing a Pumped Hydro (Water Battery) build at Werribee late in 2024.
