Airport Maintenance in Newcastle

These are used to when pouring slabs. These are used to allow movement of the slabs. We have several machines that can do 16mm — 36mm diameter. These machines are designed to do thousands of holes per day if required. These bars are also used to help align the slabs.

We have multiple machines designed to run on the surface of the road. These machine drill at a 30 degree angle and use a 16 mm diameter bit to a depth of 410mm. We can insert and use epoxy for these bars.

Expansion cutting of newly laid concrete slabs. This is required for controlled cracks in the slab. This is also used for cutting up of slabs that are damaged and require repairing or replacing, to depths up to 625mm thick.

This is used to seal the slabs. This is to prevent stones and water getting between the slabs. It is also used to stop cracking of the Joint. Sealing is done to prevent the entry of surface water below the concrete slabs, as water infiltration will dramatically shorten the durability of concrete. We have a team of men who are trained to remove the old sealant from the joints and re seal the joints.

This is mainly used down the centre of the road for safety barricades or barriers. These core sizes could range from 14mm — 1200mm in diameter.

This is a safety feature that eliminates aquaplaning on the road surface. It can also be used on sharp bend roads that could cause cars to slide into the oncoming traffic.

This is used to grind down uneven surface slabs. This machine would be petrol operated Grinding would be to approximately 5 — 8 mm in depth.

This machine would be used to remove deeper depths on the slab upwards of 8mm — 20 mm in depth.

This machine has a larger surface area used for grinding. They are mainly used on highways, airport runways. They are mainly used for larger jobs due to the size usually being approximately 1m wide. It also used for grinding down high spots on the slab.

We can drill for airport lighting on taxiways, runways and also perform slot cutting.
