NCS were approached to assess and remediate spalling repairs necessary to the dam spillway. Although safety is always a priority for NCS, it was particularly forefront of this project due to access to the dam and spillway being restrictive.

The challenging access to this Asset meant that the team had to access the dam via boat and then use rope access to be able to reach the remediation site. The team were able to erect a suitable and safe rope access system to achieve this.

The solution provided by NCS was to apply a high build repair mortar used for the patching and resurfacing of deteriorated concrete. Not only did this remediate the immediate problem of cracks within the spillway but also protected the concrete through waterproofing and enhancing durability.

This project had to be completed within two stages to avoid the freezing winter conditions which would have affected the application and repairing properties of the repair mortar.
