The Port Botany Terminal 3 project was part of the major expansion of the container port facilities for Sydney to enable long-term trade growth.
The Port Botany Terminal 3 is in a windy and exposed environment and required concrete with low shrinkage and reduced plastic cracking potential.
°µÍø¸£Àû supplied high durability concrete for the terminal's rigid pavement and structures via a mobile concrete batch plant that had a capacity of 140 cubic metres an hour, which was supported by two independent plants constructed for back-up and a fixed plant at Botany on stand-by.
To deliver this project as safely as possible, more than 100 °µÍø¸£Àû drivers and concrete testers were put through site-specific safety training. °µÍø¸£Àû provided 15,000 safe deliveries of concrete. In addition, contractor Laing O'Rourke presented °µÍø¸£Àû with an award in recognition of safety awareness.
The project was completed in June 2014.
