Project Overview

Woollam Constructions were awarded the building works at Mackay's new Catholic College, at the former iconic Sugar Research Institute on Nebo Road, Mackay. The extensive project includes construction of new classrooms, science block covered areas and amenities, canteen, carparks and associated access and road works.

The project required 2x large Onsite Stormwater Detention tanks to manage the stormwater flows from the new buildings and hard stand areas onsite, before being released into the local stormwater network.

Graf were approached to offer a cost saving alternative to the heavy modular concrete tanks in the tender plans.

The stackable design of the EcoBloc provides a freight cost advantage over modular concrete tanks, prefect for regional areas.

Graf provided a holistic supply and installation proposal in partnership with the Queensland based Australia Wide Lining, members of the international association of geosynthetics installers.

The Graf inhouse Stormwater team worked closely with Jane and Stewart Strucural Consultants to ensure the EcoBloc tanks achieved the required storage volume, at the required site levels and loading capacity for their locations. • No heavy Machinery or Cranes required onsite for deliveries or installation • Holistic proposal in partnership with certified installation team • Cost saving versus modular concrete tanks amplified by the freight to regional areas.
