Civil Works
Large civic structures are the visible face of precast concrete but less visible forms have been crucial in the development of Australia. The steady expansion of the road and rail transport systems, the sewerage systems and the electric power distribution and communication systems would not have been possible without the precast industry.
Bridge beams, railway sleepers, culverts, pipes, tunnel liners, piles, utility poles and septic tanks are typical of the products which have been widely used throughout the country.
Large sporting stadia are ideal structures for the use of precast concrete components for seating using a combination of precast concrete seating platts which are supported on raked beams of steel or concrete. In addition, precast can be used in the flooring systems of the catering and entertaining area as well as wall units and spandrel of facia units.
Typical uses for precast segmentally-lined tunnels include road and rail tunnels, sewers, water supply, high-voltage electricity supply cable tunnels and intake/outfall tunnels for desalination plants. Where is it necessary for tunnels to be lined, segmental precast tunnel liners now provide a universal solution to this need where the tunnel is excavated using a purpose-built tunnel boring machine.
Marine structures vary in size from single piers or jetties to major shipping wharfs. Structures can be designed to carry a variety of load combinations covering vehicular access and conveyor or pipeline loading systems.
