Did You Know? The Bushfire Attack Level (BAL) rating of an area significantly influences the choice of construction materials. Materials must be chosen based on their ability to withstand the specific heat and ember attack conditions defined by the BAL rating. If you need a quote for your next project, contact our friendly team today to discuss your options. #StructerreConsulting #BALRating #BushfireAttackLevel

Ground beams have several functions, including - Load transfer: They transfer loads imposed on them to their end points. - Support: They support building walls, joists, etc. - Foundation: They are used as an alternative to traditional foundations. - Load distribution: They distribute the weight of the building across a larger surface area. - Load bearing: They have a higher load-bearing capacity. - Settlement reduction: They reduce the settlement of the building. - Soil pressure resistance: They resist soil pressure and earth pressure reactions.

Q&A with Safe2core! Can GPR'S determine what type of utility it’s picked up? In terms of saying, “Oh, this is a gas main” or “This must be a water line,” not exactly. Ground penetrating radar picks up differences in density between a given object and the surrounding material. In concrete, GPR can tell you something straight lines of a very dense material are present, and those straight lines form a grid pattern. However, it takes a human mind and eyes, plus some knowledge of what’s expected to be in the material, to see that grid pattern of dense material and know you’re looking at a rebar mat. The same basic principle applies with private utility locating. By tracing a line back to its origin, usually at a meter or storm drain, we can tell you for certain something is there, and that something is most likely a gas line or your home’s water main, for example.

Fascinating read on the versatility and sustainability of concrete pipes. A game-changer for modern infrastructure!
Concrete pipe is renowned for its unmatched performance in flood control and stormwater management projects. Its rigidity, verified through plant testing, ensures consistent hydraulic properties throughout its lifespan. The inherent mass of concrete pipe resists buoyant forces, making it ideal for low-lying or marshy environments where other materials might fail. Various joint options, tested for integrity and reliability, further enhance its performance. This reliability makes concrete pipe the preferred choice for engineers, providing durable and dependable solutions for critical infrastructure needs.
