That’s why we didn’t hesitate to use it in our latest project at the beautiful Wallace Nicoll Park at Currumbin. Stainless steel is the Gold Coast City Council’s material of choice for long-term structures, particularly those erected in foreshore zones. We recently provided all of the stainless steel for one of the latest GCCC projects built by Eco Projects and Developments – a new amenities block at Wallace Nicoll Park (pictured below). The existing amenities block was demolished and a much-needed new block was built to incorporate ambulant access and a more pleasant exterior. We contributed a number of stainless steel posts to the amenities block, as well as powdercoated 5mm perforated aluminium screens. All of the stainless steel used was polished 316 grade stainless steel to ensure the structure will withstand the sometimes harsh Gold Coast conditions. If you are completing an outdoor project, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend using stainless steel. Unlike regular steel, stainless steel does not easily corrode or rust when it comes in contact with water or moisture. Stainless steels resist corrosion as they have a self-repairing “passive” oxide film on the surface. As long as there is sufficient oxygen to maintain this film and provided that the level of corrosives is below the steel’s capacity of the particular material to repair itself, no corrosion occurs.
Therefore, if the area where your stainless project will be raised is likely to have low oxygen or poor air circulation in general, you may want to consider investing in a better grade of stainless steel that has a surface finish to suit the environment it will be placed in. This will save you grief in the long run as it will help to prevent stains and any corrosion on your new project.
