Sustainable foundations
"The solution is so simple"
THE SUNDAY TIMES
|
ONE FOOTING PER WEEK = $1 MILLION SPENT OVER THE LIFE OF A DEVELOPMENT With road authorities repeatedly replacing more than 200,0000 concrete footings every year and with fast growing populations the damage & costs are set to soar The cost is not only financial * Workers risk their lives in dangerous traffic * Dealing with dangerous underground services * Consuming valuable carbon resources * Creating a never ending supply of carbon waste Yet all this hard work provides no future benefit
|
| FAST EFFICIENT INSTALLS
_____________________ Smart Ground sockets can be installed by simply positioning upright when when pouring concrete footings, (or retrofitted) creating a perfect finish that remains in pristine condition for the entire lifespan of a development
|
 |
 |
SAVE TIME & MONEY Items are simply dropped into the ground socket, automatically locking in, perfectly aligned, remaining safe and secure year after year Instead of taking weeks, the infrastructure for an entire development can be installed in a single day
|
|
NO DAMAGE WHEN IMPACTED Posts bend at ground level with no damage to surrounding asphalt, paving or concrete foundations. Posts and grab-rails (one leg at a time) can be easily levered up enough to break the seal and removal tool used as usual to remove the item. Flattened and sheared off posts - not a problem!

SAFE EFFICIENT REPLACEMENTS _____________________ All work is performed quickly and efficiently from a standing position, using ergonomic tools, substantially reducing the costs and risks associated with maintenance Worksafe Award DOH&S

OVERCOME COMMON PROBLEMS Eradicating many variables that can ruin any well planned budget, improving your ability to deliver projects on time and on-budget. No major traffic management, digging or heavy labour, no disturbance to underground services, no costly delays, no waste or tipping fees. Once Smart Sustainable Foundations are installed, the only cost is labour, greatly reducing the risk of cost overruns |

“ Our selection is not based on price alone, we also took into consideration the safety & saving aspects.
The Smart Sustainable Foundations allow quick replacement of posts with no further effort required to the base, (providing a significant cost benefit in replacing the damaged sign post by re-using the existing footing ) and reduces risk of injury to employees by reducing time spent on traffic islands exposed to traffic.” MAIN ROADS DEPT WA
