An innovative solution using Dramix 5D steel fibre reinforcing to reduce the amount of conventional reinforcement required for shear, bending moment and crack control. The solution proved to be quicker, easier and more cost effective than the traditional more labour intensive option.
Schenk facility in Jandakot Western Australia is not your usual commercial shed, there’s pits, services, and major equipment that requires careful consideration. The engineers on this project, have done an outstanding job in considering all the client’s requirements. Most of the internal slabs are constructed from BOSFA’s, tried and tested Dramix 3D product with a slab thickness of 200mm to accommodate the heavier than normal loads.
There are two large sections internally that required additional detailing due to the sensitivity of the machines being used, for this the engineers adopted a Dramix 4D Combi Slab. The combi slab allows for larger fully restrained slabs to be poured with no jointing, no saw cuts and no dowelled joints.
McVeigh Consulting again specified a “Seamless” Dramix 4D Combi Slab for the 22,000m2 Container Park to handle the huge loads from the massive forklifts and stacked containers.
Dramix Jointless slabs were used for the 15,000m2 internal warehouse as well.
And on top of that Dramix was used in the Footings throughout the facility too.

Constructed back in 2012, there are 4 major intersections between Karratha and Dampier. Each intersection constructed using a concrete slab reinforced with Dramix 3D fibres. These intersections are noted to have between 14,000 – 20,000 vehicle movements per day ranging from standard vehicle loads to major road train loadings. So if you’ve ever wondered if those little fibres can handle the load, here’s a great example of yes they can.
Built in 2016 this truck stop is located in Karratha, North West Western Australia. The facility is located on the North West Coastal Hwy, servicing many travellers and heavy haulage vehicles in the area.
