Antoun Civil Engineering Achieves ISO Accreditation

Antoun Civil Engineering has implemented an Integrated Management System compliant with AS/NZS 4801 for OH&S, ISO 9001 for Quality and ISO 14001 for Environmental Management. In September 2011 third party accreditation to these three standards was achieved.

Antoun Civil Engineering has been engaged by Qantas for the construction of the wide body maintenance bay at the Sydney Jet Base. The project involves the relocation of the existing LAME carpark and security building and extending the concrete pavement hardstand to accommodate A380 aircraft. The construction work includes new airside aircraft pavement, diversion of Lancastrian Drive, construction of a new LAME carpark, drainage, lighting and electrical services, new guardhouse, retaining walls, fencing and the installation of an underground fuel tank with new bowsers. 

Antoun Civil Engineering is now Nationally Prequalified for road works and bridgeworks.

Antoun Civil Engineering is now Nationally Prequalified for road works and bridgeworks. The assessment of our Quality, OH&S and Environmental Systems was performed by the NSW RTA. Our current scope of registration allows us to perform roadworks and bridgeworks for the RTA in NSW, VicRoads in Victoria and ACT Procurement in the ACT.

During the month of July, Antoun Civil Engineering were contracted by Hornsby Shire Council for the removal of six derelict boats from Sandbrook Inlet at Brooklyn on the Hawkesbury River.

The boats including the last river trade boat the MV Surprise II built in 1924 have been abandoned for the past decade.

Environmentally, the works were a huge success with each site restored to a natural mangrove landscape.

Full details of the project can be viewed on the Hornsby Advocate website at www.hornsbyadvocate.com.au.

Utilising new demolition, dowel bar drilling and Rapid Set concrete technologies, Antoun Civil Engineering with Volumetric Concrete Australia have impressed the judges to win the NSW CCF Earth Awards for a category 1 project.

During a planned maintenance shutdown of runway 25 at Sydney International Airport, the team were able to replace failed concrete slabs with Rapid set concrete achieving 28 day compressive strength in four hours.

This enable the runway to be reopened much earlier than would have been possible using current concrete technology. Full details of the project can be found in the July issue of the Civil Contractor magazine or on the Civil Contractor magazine website.
