Constructability Considerations for Structures on Major Infrastructure Projects

 

Has the gap between design engineers and construction engineers widened over the past 30 years in Australia? Design engineers work mostly in the office environment and do not get enough site-based experience to inform their design to make it constructable and practical to build. Conversely, construction engineers do not get the experience of working in a design environment and in a lot of cases, lose their design skills. Can we do better?



 

Our two presenters are deeply experienced in the design and construction of major bridge and civil structures both in Australia and overseas. Both Tim and Colin worked on the Phu My bridge in Vietnam in the mid-2000s, a 2 km long viaduct with a cable stay span measuring 380 m over the Saigon River. You will hear their perspectives and thoughts on integrating constructability into the design phase of a project and how this carries through to the end.
