We were engaged to drill and install hold-down anchors for a new lift shaft, as part of Transport for NSW’s train station upgrades. Our 10-tonne hydraulic drill rig made light work of sandstone.

Barangaroo – Dewatering

Working with Lend Lease on the Barangaroo development we were contracted for the installing and ongoing servicing of dewatering pumps. The proximity to water was a major project consideration and keeping the basement areas dry was vital to the construction of the basements and building foundations.

Seismic Chimney Stabilization – Concord West

Our specialist team carried out the seismic stabilization of a chimney at the Thomas Walker Boat House in the Rivendell School grounds for the Public Works Department of NSW.
The stabilization entailed working at the top of the chimney and using a hand portable coring rig to place and grout a stainless steel bar to strengthen the original masonry work against earthquake events.
