Industrial shutdowns and turnarounds in Melbourne
Cornerstone supports planned industrial shutdowns with fabrication, welding, mechanical work, pipework modifications and coordinated site installation. Preparing the agreed scope, materials and fabricated components before production stops helps the site team use the available window effectively.
Discuss Your Shutdown →Support across the shutdown scope.
Mechanical & machinery works
Removal, relocation, replacement and installation of plant and mechanical equipment.
Structural & access steelwork
Fabrication and installation of supports, platforms, stairs, handrails and structural modifications.
Industrial pipework
Fabrication, modification, fitting and installation of agreed pipework systems.
Welding & fabrication
Workshop and site works for repairs, replacement components and plant upgrades.
Plant repairs & maintenance
Mechanical, structural and fabrication work within planned maintenance shutdowns.
Site supervision
Coordination of agreed work fronts, trades and technical queries with your site team.
Prepare off site wherever practical.
Early engagement helps identify what can be measured, designed, fabricated and organised before the shutdown window opens.
- Confirm drawings, dimensions and plant interfaces.
- Prepare components, materials and consumables.
- Plan access, lifting, work sequence and dependencies.
- Agree site documentation and acceptance requirements.
Our engineering, fabrication and installation capabilities support this preparation.
Keep the work and responsibilities clear.
Plan & prepare
Define scope, shutdown dates, resources and sequence. Confirm materials and site requirements.
Execute
Supervise agreed works, track progress and communicate changes or emerging issues.
Complete & hand over
Review completion, outstanding items and the required inspection records.
Site-controlled permits and isolations remain with the designated responsible parties unless agreed otherwise. Testing, commissioning and return-to-service activities are included only where expressly agreed within Cornerstone’s scope.
Talk to us before the plant stops.
Send the scope, site location, shutdown window and required restart date, with available drawings or photographs. Include known production, access and isolation requirements.
Discuss Your Shutdown →Prepare the work before the shutdown
Provide the work list, dates, dependencies, permit and isolation responsibilities, site access and handback requirements. Workshop fabrication and welding can prepare components ahead of the agreed production window.
Coordinate plant maintenance, equipment changes and pipework tie-ins with the site team. Completion checks and records are defined in the agreed scope.
