PROJECT:
The concrete mats were used to minimise erosion in a swale drain that was put in place to protect the substation from flooding, there is approximately 20 hectares above that directs the flow towards the swale drains.
LOCATION:
Sebastopol Solar Farm, Junee and Temora Shires NSW
PROJECT STATS:
Mat: Flexible Concrete Erosion Mats
Underlay: Non-Woven Geotextile Underlay
Anchoring: Joiner Strip and Steel UBar Anchors
OUR REF: ACM 0299
PROJECT DETAILS:
Over 2300 sqm – 64 x 15m rolls of Flexible Concrete Mats with Non-Woven Geotextile Underlay.to minimise soil loss, due to poor soil conditions.
Joining strips and Ubar Anchors were used to join and anchor the mats along the longitudinal edges.
The concrete mats was used as erosion control in a manmade swale that was put in place to protect the substation from flooding, there is approximately 20 hectares above the slopes that slopes towards the swale drains. Installation was by civil contractors Civil Contractors, Ladex Construction Group Pty Ltd.
Sebastopol Solar Farm is constructed on private land approximately 16 kilometres south of Temora in New South Wales, within the Temora and Junee Shire Local Government Areas.
The solar farm is installed across the 248-hectare site. The solar farm will generate enough clean, renewable energy to power approx. 40,000 NSW homes. The solar farm will connect to the existing 132 kV Essential Energy transmission line which runs west of the site.
