2.2.4 Fabric Description

Main Hut

The Main Hut consists of two prefabricated Oregon-framed timber huts with foundations set in 50 t of loose rocks. Structural timbers are bolted together with tongue-and-groove Baltic pine used for internal and external cladding. A 1.5 m wide verandah surrounds the structure on three sides.

The living section, prefabricated by George Hudson & Son (Sydney), is 7.3 x 7.3 m with a pyramid shaped roof supported in the centre by four 100 mm by 100 mm posts. There are four skylights, all with glass and timber covers which can be opened. Bunks are arranged in two tiers around the walls, leaving a central living space for the stove and dining table.
