Projects

Each turbine foundation consisted of a monolithic 640m3 concrete pour carried out over 10 hours. Each pour consisted of 6 different concrete mixes and slump classes, and 70% GGBS was used in the approved design mixes to control the heat of hydration in the mass pours. The concrete element of the works was the subject of a four page feature in a Concrete Magazine special on sustainable construction.
Design development continued throughout the project. This enabled our consulting engineer partners to develop a site drainage plan. In addition to these works, our team carried out all site clearance, setting out, and construction of roads, in addition to construction of all hardstandings and excavating peat and underlying material to achieve the minimum California Bearing Ratio (CBR) suitable for the road construction.

The project included the upgrade of 6km of local regional roads and the construction of Philipstown Bridge over the Philipstown river to accommodate the wind turbine component deliveries to the project.
