Job 1014 - Demolish and re-fit Reservoir by Industrial Abseiling          

Over 6-months Industrial Abseiling stripped a working reservoir maintaining the residents water quality and provided this council asset with around 40-years of new life. Reservoirs last around 80-years and this one will now see out the extent of it's usefullness through the dedicated work our Industrial Abseiling team of Rope Access Cladders, Carpenters, Welders, Confined Space Technicians, Commercial Divers, Static Line Specialists, Painters and Builders.

As no enginerring plans were available Industrial Abseiling had to measure and draw the existing structure from beneath the roof-system and then design and manufacture a repalcement roofing system. In this instance the new structure had three seperate coatings able to provide the roofing system with upto 40-years of life in this wet seaside environment - 15 to 20-years more than most.

After removing and demolishing the existing roof, Industrial Abseiling began to replace purlins and stregtheners, re-roof using the exisiting sheeting to save the client dollars and then install bird proofing in the form of a mesh, manufacture and fit stainless steel guttering and down-pipes, leaf guard the roof top and fit a new 80m static line and stainless steel water-proof lock box including safety gear for council manitenance. Industrial Abseiling have gone on to do other jobs for this client.

No cranes were used and all materials were hauled to the roof - The project using Industrial Abseiling saved the client around $45,000.

Job 1043 - Repair Expansion Joints and Supply and Fit Stainless Steel Capping          

The photographic diary for Job 1043 shows Industrial Abseilings expansion joint work for this application and the additional waterproofing provided by Industrial Abseiling in the form of stainless steel capping.

The project involved hauling the sheeting after our welders cut and bent the 316 stainless for fitting. Tradespeople on rope used fixings on one side of the capping only to allow for building expansion and contraction. Stainless Steel screws were used into masonry plugs as the task was none structural and through a risk assessment fixings of this nature deemed sufficiet for the task.

The capping looks great and can be seen driving along the Motorway into the CBD.
