Case Study - Lower Murry Water Storage Tank
Composite Engineering was engaged by our client Freyssinet to make safe the access to a large storage tank for Lower Murray Water in Mildura.
The water storage tank is 52m in diameter and 9m tall. Over 250m of MaxiGRATE FRP grating was supplied to allow safe and non-slip access to the roof of the storage tank.
Our MaxiRAIL FRP handrail system was installed around the perimeter of the tank. Ensuring that personnel could safely access the tank.
All were installed to meet AS1657-2018 Fixed platforms, walkways, stairways and ladders – Design, construction and installation.
Being located in Mildura, Victoria equipment located outside can be exposed to some harsh environmental conditions. MaxiRAIL and MaxiGRATE products are designed and engineered to cope the Australian conditions and will deliver years of maintencance free service.
Composite Engineering’s MaxiRAIL FRP Handrails combine corrosion resistance, long life, and low-maintenance design, and are superior to conventional steel and aluminium edge protection.
These advanced systems are designed and manufactured to be easily installed . MaxiRAIL FRP Handrail systems are lightweight and easy to fabricate on-site. Saving on labour and equipment.
