The subdivision included a total of 58 lots across two stages where MAD3 were tasked to design all roads, drainage and water including documentation. This included engagement with our subconsultant for the design and documentation of all underground power and telecommunication works.

Scope Of Work

• Design and documentation of all earthworks, roadworks, drainage and water reticulation
• Provision of underground power and telecommunications to all lots
• Project manage construction and tendering
• Superintendent AS4000 general condition of contract.

Project Challenges

• The occurrence of erosion at the beginning of construction impacted the waterways of the Clutter Brook
• Due to existing scoping topography, difficulties were encountered with ensuring roadworks met the Shire of Mundaring grading restrictions.

How We Managed This

• MAD3 employed a combination of mulch, drainage swales and straw bales to limit the impact of erosion
• Due to site complexities, cut (up to 4m) and fill (up to 5m) was employed to meet the land grading requirements with a reduced ecological impact to the area.

Value Engineering

MAD3’s extensive knowledge of the local region allowed the project to be completed with reduced costs and on budget across various phases that was delivered to a high standard that met the client’s expectations.
