The McElligotts Queensland team was engaged to provide remedial construction services to the entrance way of a mine in the Mackay area. This project involved essential repairs and maintenance to ensure the entrance met industry standards and remained functional for the long term.
Project Scope
The project required the careful handling of an 18-tonne structure measuring 6m high, 5m wide, and 10m long. The mine entrance way was first transported to McElligotts’ Mackay yard before being lifted into position by a crane.
Once the structure was in place, our team began the abrasive blasting process to remove the old coatings and contaminants. This was followed by applying a protective coating with a primer and finishing paint. The exterior was painted white, and the interior was coated in green to ensure long-lasting protection against environmental elements.
Project Impact and Community Contribution
