Bad news CESSians 🌧️🌧️

Unfortunately, due to clashes with the faculty of civil engineering, we will have to reschedule our student staff mini golf to a later date this semester.

For those who have bought their tickets already, feel free to hang out until we reveal our new date, and if you can't make it then we'd be happy to process a refund.

Here's to hoping for sunnier days soon enough! Stay classy CESSians 😎

Due to the interest of our Shadforth site visit, we have partnered with Renovo to visit their Bundamba project! Join us in attending their final concrete pour, and with a complimentary networking BBQ afterwards!

Renovo is delivering a 35,000m2 industrial warehouse site as the principal contractor, having been brought onto the project to resolve a number of engineering issues including non-compliant geotechnical works; uncertified piling works; offshore steel procured without certifications or mill certificates and noncompliant to the engineering requirements; and a number of other issues that required a performance based approach to engineering certification/ validation.

🚧 Since being engaged in December, they have taken site possession and commissioned an on-site concrete batching facility in order to maximise their ability to take advantage of innovative concrete mix designs developed in-house, whilst minimising their exposure to 3rd party concrete suppliers for the delivery of 6,000m3 of concrete slabs in 400m3 increments, with a view to finishing the project in its entirety within five months. 🚧

We will be departing from the QUT Gardens Point campus as there is limited parking available on the street near the site. Please note that there are LIMITED SPOTS available for this event, so keep an eye out for tickets to secure your spot!

📅 When: Tuesday, 7th of May, depart at 2:45pm, return by 7:00pm.
