Tracc Civil engaged us to carry out the complete sewer installation on Andrea Drive, encompassing trench excavation, precise pipe laying, comprehensive testing. The project was executed efficiently, meeting all quality standards and delivered on schedule.
Project planning
Detailed site surveys, phased trenching and pipe laying, coordinated testing and efficient site restoration to ensure on-time, safe and compliant completion.
Planning
Securing permits, mobilizing equipment and materials, setting up traffic and safety controls and conducting site inductions to ensure a smooth start to the works.
De-watering
Was strategically executed through the installation of well points and sump pumps, effectively controlling groundwater infiltration to ensure safe, dry, and stable trench conditions throughout construction.
Problem solving
Involved quickly adapting to unexpected groundwater inflows and site conditions by modifying de-watering methods and adjusting excavation sequences to maintain progress and safety.
Challenges
