The Mondiale facility required a high-performance concrete hardstand capable of supporting extreme operational demands, including:

• 5-high stacked containers
• Heavy container handler traffic
• Continuous high-load movements
• 10,500m? of operational pavement

With efficiency in construction, durability, and long-term asset performance critical, the project required a slab system that could minimize joints, accelerate construction, and reduce lifecycle maintenance exposure.

The project adopted the SIGMA Slab® system — an integrated design methodology combining:

• Dramix steel fibres high-performance steel fibre reinforcement
• CCL post-tensioning technology

This hybrid approach combines distributed fibre reinforcement with active post-tensioning to deliver enhanced crack control, improved load distribution, and significant joint reduction compared to conventional reinforced slab construction.

Key Outcomes

Joint Minimization
Only two joints were required across the entire 10,500m2 hardstand.

Design Efficiency
The synergy between fibres and post-tensioning enabled an optimized slab design.

Construction Speed
Large panel pours were achieved, reducing reinforcement installation time and improving placement efficiency.

Reduced Lifecycle Maintenance
Fewer joints and improved crack control translate into lower repair frequency, improved surface performance, and enhanced operational uptime in a high-demand logistics environment.

Sustainability & Environmental Performance

The SIGMA Slab® solution contributes to improved environmental outcomes through:

• Material Optimization
• Reduced Embodied Carbon Potential
• Extended Service Life
• EPD Transparency

Project Result

The SIGMA Slab® system delivered a durable, high-capacity container hardstand engineered for structural performance, construction efficiency, and long-term sustainability.

From design concept through to delivery, SIGMA Slab® provided measurable construction efficiencies, reduced maintenance exposure, and whole-of-life value beyond conventional slab systems
