Structural Engineering:- Retaining walls, boardwalks, culverts, jetties, pile caps and custom structural solutions supported by SpaceGASS, MIDAS Civil and advanced modelling tools.
Structure Inspection
HNR Associates provided independent structural inspection and reporting services for the Forest Glen Solar Farm, covering transformer pedestals, conduit trench walls, lighting-mast foundations, and H-pole landing structures.
Acting on behalf of Neacon, our scope included verification of reinforcement placement, excavation geometry, concrete cover, and compliance with AS 3600 and AS 3610 prior to concrete pours.
We also reviewed early-age loading considerations for transformer plinths, coordinated with designers and Essential Energy on curing and strength verification requirements, and issued detailed photographic and tabulated inspection reports to support construction quality and long-term durability.
