A little job in a stream (This weeks photos)

Post #1 by FOWLER MAN » Fri Jul 16, 2010 12:21 am

Hello,
This is a little job to build a reinforced concrete wall in a stream bed.
The back of these workshops collapsed in a flood about six months ago.
We have fabricated four temporary columns to support the roof, diverted the stream and formed a temporary access road using concrete highway barriers.
We carefully demolished the remaining precarious walls and are now digging foundations for the new wall.

Fred.. Iv been using that same dumper from Astra Plant this week, what a pile of old rubbish! We had a Terex one of site from Astra but it was being cross hired, so they brought that one to site instead, nightmare! No guts in it at all! You keeping busy mate?

All the best,
Ashley.
