PROJECT
HIGHLIGHTS

ACG’s innovative approach to CFA piling and dewatering, along with its flexibility in adverse conditions, led to the successful completion of Trial Bay’s foreshore protection works. This project highlights ACG’s ability to overcome environmental challenges while minimising public disruption.

AT A GLANCE

ACG completed foreshore protection works at Trial Bay across three precincts, addressing challenges such as adverse weather, high water table levels, and high levels of public interaction. The project involved earthworks, sandstone bleachers on CFA piles, and the reconstruction of a 100-metre rock revetment.

In Precinct 1, we handled earthworks and landscaping, while Precinct 2 saw the construction of sandstone bleachers, boat ramp, and surrounding works. Precinct 3 involved the reconstruction of a rock revetment with over 3000 tonnes of rock and rebuilt beach access.

To mitigate dewatering challenges below the water table, ACG developed a custom precast concrete block system for CFA piling, reducing excavation risks. Dewatering solutions at Precinct 2 and efficient excavation methods at Precinct 3 minimised delays.

ACG fostered a collaborative relationship with stakeholders, adapting to weather-related disruptions to complete the project slightly beyond the original timeline.

KEY INCLUSIONS

  • Precinct 1 Minor Earthworks and Landscaping to Creek Bank
  • Precinct 2 Sandstone Bleachers structure founded on 40m CFA piled foundation to the sand dune foreshore at the back of the beach. The structure included a boat ramp as well as ancillary surround works for rock scour protection, footpaths, beach shelters and landscaping
  • Precinct 3 Complete reconstruction of rock revetment foreshore protection works to ~100m of the foreshore. The large diameter rock import, handled and placed was in excess of 3000 tonnes. These works included a mass rock footing as well as landscaping works behind the foreshore and reconstruction of beach accesses including a concrete staircase.
