Builder Multiplex is seeking more than $400 million over scores of alterations, many ordered years after the specific work had begun, court documents show.

The consortium behind the troubled Queen’s Wharf Brisbane project has been accused of ordering frequent and sweeping design changes that resulted in “significant abortive” measures and, in some cases, “dramatically” altered the original scope of works.

The builder also claims the consortium gave representations in 2019 that “no substantial redesign of the developed areas would be required”, but that this turned out to be false. Among the directions were additional staircases in the “heart of house” staffing area, gender-neutral toilets, and the division of the level-six ballroom into five sections instead of the original three.

The consortium also allegedly issued a revised design for the porte cochère vehicle passageway that was based on “out of date drawings … failed to include any allowance for demolition works … [and] included capped consultant costs without any discussion with consultants as to what it would actually cost to develop the design”.
