After heavy rain flooded the site, we had the platform re-certified by the geotech engineer. Today we added road base, improved drainage, and installed vibration monitoring so piling can start smoothly.
Today’s work is focused on building a certified 250kPa platform to support a larger piling rig. The goal is to reduce vibration impacts on neighbouring homes and prepare the site for upcoming sheet piling works.
An update on our platform preparation works, including bulk earthworks, excavation quantities, bearing platform requirements, and the next steps toward geotechnical certification.
We’ve secured DA approval and are lining up insurance, sheet piling, and dewatering. Lots of paperwork and coordination now—visible progress begins once sheet piling and dewatering start.
Behind-the-scenes site update: tie-downs, groundwater tests, survey orders, and the cost trade-offs between sheet piling and secant piles—plus why dewatering and backup power are critical.
Learn how sound travels, what STC means, and how to improve room acoustics and sound isolation in detached and duplex builds. Practical tips for shared walls, openings, and mechanical noise—without the fluff.
We secured the site office, installed power and Starlink networking, built solid set of stairs, and prepped approvals. Here’s an update on what’s done and what’s up next.
