Upgrades to the waterfront included breaks in the wharf slab for netting. After construction of the slab, the netting baseplate had to be attached to the vertical face of the cavity in the wharf. Due to the high reinforcing required in a suspended wharf slab, scanning to find clear drilling space would be very difficult. In addition to the complex reinforcing, CSI had to work around the tide and weather as the sea broke above the scaffolding during high tide, and heavy rain would pour into the cavity making the surface impossible to scan.
CSI was requested to find gaps in the reinforcing for the baseplate anchors to be inserted. CSI utilised two expert technicians to scan the face of the slab in an iterative manner. Each technician would scan an area, and then swap to check the other’s scan marks. Work times were scheduled to make the most of low tides, and the CSI members worked with the weather to ensure a timely finish.
The dual scan approach ensured high accuracy for the client as multiple expertise and scan parameters were used to determine the reinforcing location.
