Project Overview

Our team at Kevos recently contributed to the repair of the Alexandria Bridge at Ricketty Street. Commissioned by EPTEC PTY LTD for Sydney Transport, the project required us to document the bridge repair drawings for concrete and reinforcement works, strictly adhering to the NSW government documentation procedures.

Our Contributions

In this project, our key responsibilities included:

  • Understanding Documentation Procedures: We thoroughly studied the NSW government standards to ensure our documentation was fully compliant.
  • Bridge Inspection: We conducted detailed inspections to assess the bridge’s condition and identify areas needing repair.
  • Developing Repair Drawings: We created precise drawings that outlined the necessary concrete and reinforcement repair methods, ensuring they met all technical and regulatory requirements.
  • Accurate Representation: We prepared drawings that accurately represented the repair works, facilitating clear communication among all stakeholders.
  • Review and Approval: We collaborated closely with Sydney Transport authorities to review and approve the documentation, addressing any concerns promptly.

Challenges and Solutions

The project presented several challenges, which we addressed as follows:

  • Complex Documentation Procedures: We navigated the intricate NSW government guidelines by dedicating time to study and consulting with experienced professionals.
  • Precise Condition Assessment: We utilised advanced inspection techniques to accurately evaluate the bridge’s condition.
  • Effective Communication: We maintained regular contact with Sydney Transport, providing updates and responding quickly to inquiries.

Outcomes and Benefits

The project was completed successfully, with the repair drawings delivered on time and within budget. By following the NSW government documentation procedures, we achieved:

  • Improved accuracy in the repair plans.
  • Reduced potential for errors during construction.
  • Enhanced communication between all stakeholders.
  • Increased safety and quality standards for the bridge repairs.

Ultimately, our meticulous documentation contributed to the timely and effective restoration of the Alexandria Bridge, ensuring safer and more reliable infrastructure for the community.
