Whilst the specification called for traditional steel reinforced concrete, our technical team worked with the civil contractor on an innovative solution specifically for this project.  The client was required to install pits and covers overnight to avoid disruption to Australia’s busiest Airport.  The logistics proved difficult given the need for large cumbersome machinery at each pit install location.

Mascot GRC Electrical Pits and drop-in Ductile Iron Covers were chosen to accommodate the runway and apron lighting, as they could be moved around the site on small utility vehicles, and installed with minimal machinery.

Not only was the contractor able to complete the installation without issue, the project was also completed early.
