- Concrete repair to all delaminated areas of the top ring of the cooling towers to ensure lasting durability.
- Installation of a Hybrid Cathodic Protection System to protect reinforcements of the top ring of both towers against corrosion.
- Installation of post-tensioning.
- Application of coatings to all delaminated areas of the towers.
- Installation of safe access, including stretcher stairs, suspended bridge, Alimak hoist, and full perimeter scaffolding around the cooling tower
Cooling towers play a crucial role in condensing steam back into water for reuse in electricity generation. As part of Stanwell’s year-round maintenance program, Freyssinet was engaged to repair and reinforce the rim of a Queensland cooling tower. The project required a specialised access system, including an inclined hoist, to safely reach the top of the 116-metre high structure. All works were successfully completed while the cooling tower remained fully operational.
