Project Value
Jaydo was engaged by East Gippsland Water for the interim upgrades to the Bairnsdale Water Recycling Plant, including works to the activated sludge plant, final treatment lagoon, ferric dosing basin and the wet weather flow management. Works included civil, mechanical, electrical, hydraulic and structural.
key challenges
As this was an operating WRP, minimising impact to the day to day operations was of high priority whilst completing major works to the multiple components of the treatment facility. Works had to be meticulously planned to not disrupt the operations.
Key Innovations
The 20t precast walls were poured on a raised temporary timber deck, this enabled the leak stops on the back side of the tapered walls to be cast as one pour. This process helped minimise the duration of these works and had less impact to the treatment plant operations.
Value for money
Jaydo self performed all the major components of the project to minimise the cost of managing subcontractors.
