McVeigh Consulting realised the significant advantages of removing all joints in an External H.D. Pavement, and so designed a “Seamless” Dramix 4D Combi Slab for the new 10,000m2 facility at the Port of Brisbane. Logos were again keen to have this solution for their new facility, which was built by McNab as one of their first steel fibre reinforced projects. QR Contracting placed the Boral concrete to a very high quality finish, in very tough conditions, and the facility is in full operation within a few weeks.
WWWHP (World Wide Warehouse Hai Phong) continued building the next phrase of their renting warehouse. The project is a suspended slab with 5400m2 floor area. The client wanted to have a flat floor according to Fm2 – TR34, the floor has been cast using a strip method, utilising a Dramix® 4D Combi slab solution enabling tight crack control and removing expansion joints.
This project is for the external pavement for the new Dinding facility in Lumut. The pavement is reinforced with Dramix® 3D fibre for heavy traffic load. The slab has a broomed finish to add friction on the road for traffic. This project is still ongoing, Main contractor by ETEC (Korea) consultant by Royal Haskoning and external slab executed by Sathia Construction.
