The Bellevue Rail Cart Assembly Facility was delivered for the WA Public Transport Authority as part of the state’s growing rail infrastructure program.

The project required a high-performance industrial slab capable of handling heavy assembly loads, tight crack control, and long-term durability. A Dramix Combi Slab system — combining conventional mesh with Dramix 4D steel fibres — was selected to meet these demands.

Project Challenges

  • High load capacity for rail cart assembly
  • Efficient slab design and construction
  • Consistent, controlled crack widths
  • Reduced maintenance over the asset life
  • Durable performance in a demanding industrial environment

Solution:
Combi Slab – Mesh + Dramix 4D Steel Fibres. This combination provided reliable reinforcement with superior post crack behaviour and multi directional performance. Engineering design ensured consistent nominal crack widths across the facility for durability and visual quality.

Performance Outcomes

  • Superior crack control
  • Optimised structural efficiency
  • Improved post crack behaviour
  • Lower maintenance risk

Project Result: The Dramix Combi Slab delivered a robust reinforcement solution aligned with PTA’s lifecycle and performance expectations.
