NCS was contracted directly by the asset owner, Goulburn Murray Water to carry out remedial repairs on Snipey Road Bridge. The concrete had lost approximately 10mm of fines, exposing the aggregate, and thus leaving the concrete vulnerable to further deterioration.

To fully understand the extent of deterioration, NCS used high-pressure water to remove all laitance and material to leave a sound finish. The surface was then re-instated to its original profile.

Approximately 1200sqm of the concrete surface has now been rehabilitated, providing reassurance to the asset owner, that the steel reinforcing within the structure is protected, but also combining a surface that reduces ongoing maintenance, and ultimately offering cost savings and extending the service life of the structure.
