Watch Video Specific aspects: 20,000 year old glaciers formations are now boulders stacked up to 400m high up the slope in several sections. Due to Snowy 2 requiring more lane width for huge plant/equipment, extra widening of the existing single road access track was critical. Engineers consulted with Spec Geo to design the following:
Galvanised 38mm hollow bar drilled from 9m to 45m per bolt. A total of 20,000 metres installed.
Custom temporary catch fences above each site supplied and installed by SG.
Single twist high tensile mesh applied and tensioned to boulders.
Coloured shotcrete applied in various sections.
Access: Pre cut single lane benches for all plant and equipment along a heavy utilised access road for construction of the Mighty Snowy 2.
