Benefits
The original conventional design on the External Container Pavement at this facility was 250mm thickness. With our Seamless Combi Slab design we were able to reduce the thickness to 180mm, which also matched the existing conventional vehicle driveway. Therefore, no further excavation was required in the container storage areas, which provided cost savings of over $10,000. As well the removal of all Joints (Saw-Cut & Movement) eliminating ongoing long-term maintenance costs.
