10 Eagle Street (The Gold Tower)
TRSC engineering services for the Cisco fitout at 10 Eagle Street ('The Gold Tower'), Brisbane CBD financial precinct. OPUS programme 008.
10 Eagle Street is a 32-storey A-grade commercial office tower in the Brisbane CBD's financial precinct, locally referred to as the Golden Triangle. The tower was completed in 1977 and was Brisbane's tallest building at completion, with a height of 135 metres to the top of its uppermost occupied floor. The building was designed by Australian architectural firm Peddle Thorp & Walker, with a distinctive gold-anodised aluminium-framed curtain wall — earning the building its enduring local nickname 'The Gold Tower' — and a structural floor plate uniquely shaped to resemble a stylised map of Australia. The tower's facade transitions from gold to a striking red hue under late-afternoon sunlight, a phenomenon widely photographed across the Brisbane River from the South Bank precinct. The building shares its prominent riverside location with two of Brisbane's other landmark commercial towers — Waterfront Place at 1 Eagle Street (refer to TRSC's Waterfront Place project record) and Riparian Plaza — and is a five-minute walk from Central Station, the Riverside ferry terminal and Queen Street Mall. The tower has progressively been refurbished from the late 2000s with energy-efficient T5 and sensor-based lighting upgrades, end-of-trip facilities, concierge services and a multi-tenant occupancy model that includes Talisman Partners, AECI Mining Group, Dentons (the global law firm), the German Honorary Consulate, Servcorp serviced offices on Level 19 and a series of commercial tenants associated with the financial precinct. The building's heritage as Brisbane's first 1970s-era high-rise tower and its enduring 'Gold Tower' identity make it a recognisable component of the Brisbane skyline.
TRSC was engaged in 2025 under OPUS programme 008 to deliver Cisco Fitout Engineering Services at 10 Eagle Street, Brisbane City. Programme 008 is the same OPUS programme that aggregates the Marina Mirage Marine Structure Investigation engagement (refer to TRSC's Marina Mirage worked example), with the Cisco fitout recorded as a discrete secondary scope item under the same programme number. The OPUS engagement is categorised as Engineering. Tenancy fitout engineering on a 32-storey A-grade Brisbane CBD tower of this kind typically covers structural assessment of the existing concrete floor plate to support new tenancy partition lines and equipment loads, slab penetration design and verification (with GPR scanning to locate reinforcement and embedded services prior to coring), connection design for ceiling-mounted and floor-mounted equipment frames, façade-interfacing element design where required, and Form 15 RPEQ certification for QBCC compliance. The OPUS programme stage history is recorded as Archived and Project Won - To Be Coordinated with active OPUS status, reflecting the dual-engagement nature of programme 008 (Marina Mirage marine investigation completed; Cisco fitout engineering ongoing). RPEQ-certified design documentation issued for the Cisco fitout engagement is held in the project record under programme 008. The address mapping (Cisco occupancy at 10 Eagle Street) is inferred from the publicly-recorded Servcorp serviced-office tenancy at Level 19; the underlying OPUS record confirms the engagement type and programme number, and the building-level address is confirmed against the project file before any Form 15 is issued under this programme.
