Project Spotlight | Eagle Farm TAFE
Ongoing flooding at Eagle Farm TAFE was being caused by ageing stormwater infrastructure, severe tree root intrusion and buried manholes that were difficult to access.
The team at Nuflow Brisbane North was brought in to investigate the network and develop a solution with minimal disruption to the active campus.
The works included:
πΉ Cleaning and inspecting the existing stormwater lines
πΉLocating and raising buried manholes for future access
πΉ Providing a condition report on the existing network
πΉ Rehabilitating damaged sections using Nuflow and UV lining systems
πΉ Completing the project without major excavation across the site
One of the biggest challenges was a mahole that had become inaccessible after part of a building was constructed above it. Rather than excavating around the structure, the team cleared the obstruction internally and created a lining solution that connected the existing stormwater lines.
The result was a restored stormwater system with far less disruption to staff, students and surrounding services.
Smarter rehabilitation can help solve complex infrastructure prolems without creating bigger ones above ground.
