Berrigan irrigation works, New South Wales

Geoplast Geoplanel was used to complete a replacement of a gate structure on the Berrigan Main Channel, part of the Murray Irrigation Scheme, with walls 2400 mm x 300 to 350 mm thick.

A pressure was mounting to build the concrete walls and gate structure during a limited shut down period between seasons. A fast, adaptable formwork system was required.

Allcon Group, our Australian distributor, designed and delivered 180 m2 of Geoplast Geopanel Wall plastic formwork for concrete to build two “U”-shaped walls with channel returns and wing walls to suit the Rubicon gates.

Using Geoplast plastic formwork meant that the entire structure could be formed and poured in under 5 days.
