Project Overview
The works required engineered solutions for two open uncovered drain (OUD) crossings, incorporating vertical bends, flange-to-flange pipe sections, and custom thrust and anchor blocks. All trenching was completed to the required modified compaction standards.
GMS provided design input to eliminate a Gibault fitting, reducing system weak points and improving long-term reliability. A custom lot plan was developed to ensure traceability, and ITPs were used throughout to verify compliance with both PWC and engineering specifications. Works were carried out through the wet season, resulting in some delays shared across all trades on site. Despite these conditions, the project was delivered with zero safety incidents, with daily pre-starts completed across all machinery to ensure safe and efficient operations.
