Early geotechnical reports reduce risk for infrastructure projects
Successful infrastructure projects hinge on obtaining a comprehensive geotechnical report early in project planning and design.
That’s according to Wagners CFT Structural Engineer, Sabin Raut who argues that by revealing critical subsurface conditions at the outset of a project, design decisions can be made early to minimise risk and protect the project from costly delays and complications.
A major electricity supplier in New South Wales has found a solution to Australia’s shortage of Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations, particularly for regional areas.
Essential Energy recently began trials on an innovative EV charger integrated into a Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) utility pole, combining sleek design and leveraging off existing infrastructure.
At Wagners CFT, we have supplied FRP pedestrian bridges across Australia and New Zealand in a diversity of climates. Our composite structures boast robustness and longevity, remarkably equipped to endure extreme conditions. Moreover, they require minimal upkeep, providing a lasting, valuable resource for the community.
