Waterfront City and its showroom developments are located in Melbourne’s Docklands, either side of Waterfront Way. Construction included brand new apartments, additional entry ramps, floor upgrades, demolition of the ground mezzanine floor and an extension of the existing car park to six levels.
Geotech was engaged to design, supply and install all requirements for the Continuous Flight Auger (CFA) foundation system, without making any disruption to locals and tourists or the District Docklands Shopping Precinct.
The main role was to design and construct 230 no. deep CFA foundation piles made up of both 750mm and 900mm diameter compression and tension piles.
Geotech also carefully undertook dynamic load tests and low strain pile integrity tests in order to determine the pile geometry, soil response and structural integrity.
