Centre for National Resilience Melbourne – MPX
In 2021, the Australian Government partnered with the Victorian government to deliver the Centre for National Resilience in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, with a capacity of 1,000 beds.
The project ran from July 2021 to March 2022, 7 days a week, 24hrs a day.
La Trobe University’s Student Accommodation – MPX
LTUSA project delivered a new standard in sustainable living spaces. 624 student accommodation beds over 6 levels with 2,700+ individual mass timber elements. Using cross-laminated timber it has the capacity to halve the embodied carbon in the building relative to a concrete structure.
XLAM panels are prefabricated cross-laminated timber elements (3–9 layers, up to 13.5m long) made without formaldehyde. They offer high strength, flexibility, and durability while combining structural performance with sustainability benefits such as energy efficiency, seismic and fire resistance. The project used 1,668 m³ of XLAM and 74 m³ of glulam, storing approximately 1,393 tonnes of CO₂.
To date, this project is the largest mass engineered timber construction of its kind in Victoria and one of the largest *Passive House Certified buildings in the southern hemisphere. LTUSA was our second CLT project and largest to date.
*Highrise Carpentry worked on Multiplex’ first CLT building, Monash University’s highly sustainable student accommodation.

Our largest project to date, it spanned over three years.
