Site Investigations Management

The BIM one team specialise in Site Investigations Management across a broad range of disciplines including utilities potholing investigations, geotechnical and pavement testing, detailed topographic field survey, and traffic counts. With a background in design and construction management, we understand what is most important when it comes to site investigation data outputs. Our team of Chartered Engineers are well-equipped to apply critical decision making on behalf of our clients "on the fly", ultimately saving time and money..

With a background in design and construction management, we understand what is most important when it comes to site investigation data outputs.

Our team of Chartered Engineers are well-equipped to apply critical decision making on behalf of our clients "on the fly", ultimately saving time and money.

We have experience with the coordination and management of the following types of site investigation:

  • Utility investigations (GPR, EMI, Potholing) in accordance with AS5488
  • Pavement testing – FWD, GPR, defect mapping, sampling and testing
  • Geotechnical sampling and testing
  • Detailed field survey
  • Traffic counts and surveys

Feature Projects

M1 Pacific Motorway Exit 49 Interchange Upgrade

$

BIM one was engaged to deliver the utilities coordination and design scope during the Preliminary and Detailed Design phases for the M1 Pacific Motorway Exit 49 Interchange Upgrade.

The upgrade involved collapsing the two roundabouts into new signalised intersections, significant upgrades to the associated local service roads, and installation of a new overpass bridge. The team was responsible for the coordination and management of PUP site investigations, the detailed conflict assessment, development of relocation / protective treatments, liaison with utility authorities and negotiation of technical solutions with authority representatives.

During the early stages of the Preliminary Design phase for the Exit 49 Interchange project, Michael was able to apply his in-depth of all engineering aspects typically associated with the development of a TMR road/ highway interchange upgrade – working closely with the other key discipline leads to identify opportunities to minimise the number and extent of PUP impacts compared to those identified during the Business Case.  The BIM one team worked closely with the broader highways / civil design team to refine geometric solutions, storm water drainage arrangements, and road furniture placement – which ultimately reduced the relocation costs by approximately $4 million compared to the Business Case arrangement.

The management of the site investigations scope included geotechnical, pavement, ITS, ecological surveys, noise monitoring, traffic counts and utility survey. Our team was responsible for the planning, programming, traffic control, on-site management, and technical oversight - for the safe and timely delivery for the full suite of site investigations.

Mount Lindesay Highway JS2SS

$

BIM one was engaged as AECOM's specialist subconsultant for the delivery of the utilities coordination and design scope, during the Preliminary and Detailed Design phase for the Mount Lindesay Highway Upgrade between Johanna Street and South Street.

The scope of the project involved an upgrade to the highway through Jimboomba, with key features including:

  • Widening the highway to 4 lanes
  • Construction of a new southbound bridge over the disused rail corridor
  • Upgraded/improved intersections at Johanna Street, Tamborine Street and South Street, Brisbane Street
  • Building a new shared pedestrian and bike underpass along the disused rail corridor
  • Relocating the Mount Lindesay Highway access to and from Brisbane Street (service road)

The BIM one team was responsible for:

  • all consultation with and coordination of the relevant utility authorities in the form of written and verbal correspondence, and face-to-face meetings
  • interpretation of the existing data sets including BYDA, as-con drawings, GIS and survey
  • interdisciplinary coordination with the AECOM design team
  • conflict identification
  • preparation of site investigation brief
  • space-proofing for relocation designs
  • detailed relocation / protection designs
  • obtaining cost estimates for relocations / protection treatments from utility authorities
  • preparation of a Design Report, Drawings and 12d model
  • preparation of Supplementary Specifications and a Schedule of Rates for the TIC-CO contract

M1 North Stage 2 EMP2DH - Site Investigations

$

The BIM one team were engaged by AECOM to undertake site investigations on the M1 Pacific Motorway and adjacent service roads – as part of TMR South Coast Region’s $750 million upgrade program.

The output of these investigations was critical to informing the design process for a major cross drainage structure installed under the motorway.

Mount Lindesay Highway Site Investigation Management

$

The BIM one team coordinated multiple subcontractors – combining our design and construction experience and applying engineering judgement to optimise each of the investigation processes.

Our approach to providing temporary traffic management for the investigations involved BIM one directly engaging a Traffic Control provider for all work activities, streamlining the process for TGS preparation and application for traffic permits from TMR and Logan City Council – rather than each individual subcontractor making multiple applications
