Ulverstone Sewage Treatment Plant Upgrade

Bored pile foundations for a new clarifier at the Ulverstone Sewage Treatment Plant, increasing the plant’s treatment capacity.

Project Overview

Foundation piling for a new clarifier at the Ulverstone Sewage Treatment Plant, part of an upgrade to increase the plant’s wastewater treatment capacity.

BridgePro drilled and installed 24 bored piles, from approximately 2 to 6 m deep, with 24 custom reinforcement cages tailored to each pile, and poured the piles to the nominated levels.

A specialised bored piling rig handled the varying ground conditions, and a bespoke dewatering system managed the high water table to keep the work area dry.

Key figures: 24 bored piles, 2 to 6 m deep, with custom reinforcement cages.
