The C2H project involved duplication of the rail line between Coomera and Helensvale train stations, including the construction of eight bridges.
Goldings engaged Niepe Operations Manager Tony Pepe as a Concrete Supervisor to oversee construction on three of the bridges using Niepe and Goldings personnel. This scope included structural concrete formwork, steel fixing and pouring components. All bridges were completed under budget and ahead of schedule.
Scope: Railway duplication including eight bridges
Niepe was engaged by Skyway to construct a 3-span bridge with a cast insitu concrete substructure, a precast deck unit superstructure with a cast insitu deck. Our innovative temporary works solution enabled us to construct the superstructure without the use of a temporary girder walkway, saving the client time and money.
Niepe assisted with the construction of the Green Bridge on the Gold Coast. This three-span steel and concrete framed bridge was managed by the Georgiou and Brady Marine JV.
The Green Bridge provides a vital gateway between Home of the Arts (HOTA) and Surfers Paradise via Chevron Island.
Scope:
Bridge Construction – concrete elements including abutment, piers, bridge deck.
Niepe Construction has a valued relationship with Roadtek which has been cultivated over many years through the delivery high quality concrete infrastructure works across South East Queensland. Works include the supply of skilled labour to assist RoadTek work crews, Form Reo and Pour of concrete structures such as end structures, culverts, floodways and bridges. An overview of projects completed by Niepe Construction for RoadTek under our ongoing Standing Order Agreement include; Reedy Creek Culverts near Roma, Bradley’s Gully Levee at Charleville (See Above), Patrick St Bridge Dalby, Goondiwindi-Yelarbon Bridge and a wide range of flood damage repair works through the Wide Bay and Lockyer Valley regions.
Involved in the construction of various structures within the southern section of the works including CROP railway bridge, Wynnum Road Bridge, Old Cleveland Road Bridge and a number of associated works including in situ barriers, gantry bases and RC retaining walls. The works on the southern section involved a number of green field structures and widening of existing structures which required flexibility in work hours and shifts to meet the requirements of the project deed.
Works also included set up of various site compounds including concrete slabs and shed and awning installation.
Engaged to construct three bridges on the Pacific Highway Upgrade near Coffs Harbour, including the Northbound Bridge, Off-ramp Bridge and Bark Hut Bridge. Abutment wingwalls ranged in height from 7.5m to 10m. Niepe was able to deliver the bridges under program despite working in an extremely confined area and with continually inclement weather. This Project also involved the construction of other bridge elements such as decks, parapets and approach slabs.
Engaged to construct six bridges and the Springfield Station arched structure shown below. We faced many challenges associated with the construction of the arch piers in the Springfield Station including sourcing a formwork design which would meet the tight Trackstar program and budget and eventually we decided on a modular travelling system.
Niepe is also engaged to construct various other structures throughout the project including abutments, capping beams, columns, headstocks and deck slabs. Site challenges involve working in a congested, multi-disciplinary area with compressed programs and multiple crews and bridges occurring concurrently.
This project includes
Construction of 6 Bridges
Construction of Springfield Station Arch Pier System
Used a modular travelling form work system
Challenging major project
Abutments, capping beams, columns, headstocks and deck slabs
Niepe Construction was involved on the Boundary Road Interchange project in Narangba. Niepe constructed a 6 lane, 4 span bridge and 2 shared user path bridges over the motorway and on ramps. Niepe also had been engaged to construct barriers and drainage structures.
