Case Study: Hunter Water strengthens Morisset and Arcadia Vale reservoirs with Pensar

Hunter Water strengthens two 9 megalitre reservoirs with Pensar

Hunter Water faced significant structural challenges with its aging Morisset and Arcadia Vale reservoirs, which were suffering from concrete delamination and spalling and required seismic strengthening. Pensar was engaged to undertake a complex renewal project that involved managing hazardous materials, strict deadlines, and working in close proximity to the local community.

Pensar implemented a comprehensive solution that included removing hazardous materials, installing a carbon fiber reinforcement system, applying a polyurea coating, and extending the external footings. Through careful planning, extended work hours, and clear communication with the client, Pensar successfully accelerated the project's completion. This strengthened the critical water assets for Hunter Water and fostered a highly positive relationship between the two organizations.
