Our team designed square hollow round section trusses, which were bolted and fabricated at approximately 15 metres in length.

West Gate Bridge Painting Project – Pier 10

Date Completed: December 2021 - ongoing
Budget: $70 million
Contractor: CPB Contractors
Location: West Gate Bridge – Pier 10
The West Gate Bridge has a long history with building commencing in 1968. Two years into construction of the bridge, at 11.50 am on 15 October 1970, the 112m (367.5 ft) span between piers 10 and 11 collapsed and fell 50m (164 ft) to the ground and water below. Thirty-five construction workers were killed. A monument has been erected at the base of Pier 10 to the fallen workers. This created a unique environment for the team to work in as they were building around this monument – even with the much advance knowledge, vision and engineering the team now has and the capabilities of the team – they are still aware of the danger and the history of that bridge and ensured at all time safety was of extreme importance to everyone.
