The causeway and breakwater at the Half Tide Tug Harbour suffered damage from Cyclone Debbie in 2017. North Queensland Bulk Ports awarded the contract for the placement of new armour rock to Vassallo Constructions. Over 9,500 tonnes of armour rock were used for this project.
Due to volume and quality control requirements, we coordinated with the quarry operator to take the rock at the source, managing and sorting it with our 50t excavator with calibrated on-board weighing system, then transported to site in semi-side tippers.
We installed a specialised excavator boom extension and calibrated our GPS for centimetre precision to ensure the accurate placement of rock.
