PROJECTS IN SERBIA

Civil Engineering is a complex discipline which encompasses a wide range of activities. Our experience ranges from full service land development (preliminary feasibilities, concept and detailed design, tendering and contract administration), through infrastructure design to drainage studies and urban water management plans.

• Contract Management including site inspections, organization of meetings, and administration of contract during construction, organizing final inspections.

Project_ Peregrine Estate-Pierre Waters, City of Armadale

Client_ Zivalia WA

KCTT are the civil design consultant for the development of 200 lots for Handle Property Group in Peregrine Estate, Piera Waters.

The development is located on the western side of Wright Road and exhibits specific issues with high groundwater (exhibiting at surface through much of the development).

KCTT provided a range of services including:• Detailed geometric road design; • Stormwater drainage design; • Sewer and water design; • Coordination of electrical, telecommunications, gas and landscaping inputs • Intersection design and roundabout design.

KCTT have recently completed the administration of an open tender process with the project split into separable portions for early earthworks and the construction of 3 stages consecutively of the development.

Project_ Blundell and Malvern Street, Dayton

Client_ Block Property

KCTT have completed detailed design works over an area encompassing 110 lots in Dayton in the Swan growth corridor. The area of the study is bounded by Blundell Street to the west and Malvern Street to the east.

We also completed a detailed UWMP over approximately 250 lots. One of the key success components of this design is the maintenance of vegetation in the existing drainage swale and along Blundell Street. Our scope of works includes:

• Concept and detailed design of roads, drainage, wastewater and water infrastructure.

• UWMP over 250 lots including design for temporary basins, the ultimate basin on lot 7 Harrow Street and design integration of the Arnold Street to Malvern Street drainage swale.

• Tender administration split into early earthworks and civil contracts.

• Commencement of earthworks in July 2022.

Project_ Rockingham Road, Munster

Client_ Progress Developments

KCTT were engaged by Progress Developments to provide Civil Engineering Services, inclusive of Concept Design, Detailed Design, Tender Assessment and Administration, Contract Administration, and UWMP Design Services on a 28-lot development area in Munster which were completed in December 2019.

KCTT have achieved a balanced budget on this project by iterating the design as construction issues are found inclusive of: -

• Modifications to the proposed intersection with Rockingham Road to negate requirements to relocate a major Telstra optic fibre asset.

• Modifications to lot levels to negate the requirements for a noise wall on the eastern boundary.

Project_ Kwinana Freight Terminal Drainage Study, Aurizon

Client_ Aurizon

KCTT have been commissioned to assist Aurizon to develop additional areas for stock piling of materials and equipment to facilitate improvements to their logistics operations at the Kwinana Beach Depot.

Our scope of works includes:

• Stormwater drainage strategies over 13 separate undeveloped areas. •

Earthworks and infrastructure plans for potential redevelopment of each area.

• Detailed stormwater drainage calculations for basin capacities.

• Calculation of all preexisting stormwater drainage catchments across 70 Ha site.

project_ WALGA_Murat Road and Mortiss Street Enhancement Project

client_ Shire of Exmouth

KCTT were engaged to design and manage the delivery of approximately 4.5km of Murat Road and 1.5km of realignment of Mortiss Street to cater for heavy vehicles and a separated residential access.

KCTT prepared Civil Engineering Design for Murat Road and Mortiss Street along with the following intersections:

• Murat Road / Preston Street

• Murat Road / Mortiss Street

• Murat Road / Gnulli Court

• Murat Road / Kestrel Place

• Murat Road / Corella Court

• Murat Road / Reid Street.

Project_ Old Lord Street Design, City of Swan

Client_ City of Swan

KCTT were engaged by the City of Swan to redesign the existing Lord Street road reservation between a location south of Youle-Dean Road and Marshall Road Dayton.

The project is necessitated by the urban expansion of the Swan Growth Corridor as well as the requirements of the Ellenbrook Bus Rapid Transit project and the proposed realignment of “New Lord Street” into the former Perth to Darwin National Highway Corridor.

KCTT provided detailed design engineering services in the following fields:-

• Geometric road design; •

Storm water drainage design;

• Signage and line marking;

Project_ Perth College - Lawley Crescent, Mount Lawley

Client_ Perth College

Lawley Crescent is a road with strong pedestrian activity and pronounced requirement for pedestrians to cross it often throughout day. The school recently estimated that there are approximately 3,500 pedestrian crossings per day during school periods on Lawley Crescent. A formal zebra crossing will significantly enhance the safe movement of students/pedestrians throughout the day and for this reason the implementation of a zebra crossing has been a key component of the streetscape works proposed by the School.

Project_ Lucky Bay Campgrounds

Client_ Department of Parks and Wildlife

KCTT were engaged by the Department of Parks and Wildlife to complete civil engineering design for Lucky Bay Campgrounds in Cape Le Grand National Park, approximately 60 kilometres east of Esperance. The design brief encompasses: over 100 parking bays, camp sites and caravan bays, over 2.5 kilometres of roadways and over 1 kilometre of footpaths inclusive of stairs.

This iconic location represented a particular engineering challenge due to varying site levels, specific nature of the project itself and work within highly restricted areas (national park). Usage of locally produced construction materials was set as a priority.

The design commenced in late January 2015. Construction began in July 2015 and was completed before the start of tourist season.
