Come and visit the installation of Rainsmart NERO Grass Paving at Carrum Foreshore, off Old Post Office Lane, Carrum. NERO paving completes a large grassed car parking area, some 1350sqm. The green finish is environmentally friendly and visually attractive. Stormwater drainage is aided by the inclusion of Ellipse Double storm water modules located beneath the paving, forming large storm water soak pits.

Come and see the installation of a large Rainsmart Underground Rainwater Harvesting tank at the "Green Spine" project at Fraser Street, Airport West. The innovative design by Fisher & Fisher allows for infiltration of rainwater through graded granular layers into the triple Ellipse modules located beneath. Some 1009 triple modules will form a 350,000L storage tank. The installation is easily viewed from the street so visit anytime this week, before it is all "wrapped up"!

Construction joints in lean-mix concrete slabs were sure to lead to reflective cracking of the 200mm thick deep-lift asphalt pavement at the Airport Drive Extension. In April 2015 consultant Aurecon specified Huesker's "SAMIgrid" to be placed directly on the slabs to reduce stress concentrations and prevent cracking of the AC. SAMIgrid is especially designed to be placed directly on concrete paving to intercept anticipated cracking from construction joints. Other applications include cement-treated crushed rock pavements where shrinkage-cracking is a common problem.

At the Commonwealth Games Village at Southport, Queensland, contractor Mainland Civil used over 8,000sqm of ABG's "Deckdrain 700s" drainage geocomposite. 8mm thick Deckdrain replaces the traditional 300mm thick aggregate drainage layer in applications including retaining walls, basements and bridge abutments, speeding up construction and providing real cost savings.

Contractor John Holland laid over 18,000sqm of "extremely-robust" woven geotextile "W155" recently at the Level Crossing Removal Project at Ormond. Originally the client intended to use a similar strength non-woven grade but the cost savings of using a strong woven geotextile gave cause for thought. W155 acts as a separation layer and provides tensile strength to help stabilise soft roadway subgrades.

Moree By-Pass A key to the best installation of Hatelit C Asphalt Grid is the use of a purpose-built installation frame. SRS Roads, with Tropic Asphalt installed 7,200sqm of Hatelit C for Hazell Bros at the RMS Moree By-Pass project in June 2014. The potential for reflective cracking through new asphalt lead to the choice of Hatelit C as a strain-alleviating layer. SRS used a simple steel frame supported on a front-end loader to install the Hatelit C. SRS has experienced, competent crews Australia-wide to ensure top quality installations of Hatelit C.
