The design of Beach Road in Vilanculos in Mozambique. Vilanculos is situated at the Bazaruto Archipelago which consists of five prestine islands. Most of the Archipelago has been declared a National Park and sustains a diverse range of flora and fauna. The Park is is protected by WWF. |

The project comprises the construction of the New Orlando Soccer Stadium. It is a 40 000 seat capacity stadium.
The superstructure is constructed of reinforced concrete beams, columns and slabs. The brickwork is the cladding to the internal and external walls. The superstructure is covered with aluminium roof sheeting fixed onto structural steel trusses. The roof structure is fixed onto the perimeter of the stadium and covers at least seventy percent of the seated areas. The stadium consists of five levels and a basement parking. It has four tower ramps which provides access to the seating areas. The stadium is constructed in an elliptical shape which allows for more comfortable viewing of the game.

The project consisted of the design and detailing of the substructures for 7 of the viaducts on the southern line of Gautrain. These substructures included piles, pile caps, spread footings, piers, pier heads and perched abutments.
For each of the 7 viaducts, the
substructure was designed based on the
geological conditions and geometry, in
order to support the deck slabs of the
structures. The design was based on the
Euro code.
The piles for Pier 41 of Viaduct 15.3 had to be designed to extend through two levels of the covered parking at OR Thambo International Airport

ROUTE N12 SECTION 20 FROM OGIES (Km 42.3) TO WITBANK (Km 68.9)
The following rehabilitation measures were conducted to ensure the required minimum structural life on the freeway:
• Replace panels and sub base in the slow lane from km 67.8 to 68 WBC
• Replace panels and sub base in the slow lane of the EBC and WBC at km 56
• All severe cracking were repaired by removing 500mm strip of concrete and replacing
with new concrete where there is a possibility of a potential blow up
• Reaming and sealing all severe cracking with crack stitching in places
• Regrooving of all areas with inadequate texturing
• Replacement of damaged traffic signs
• Replacement of broken concrete lined side drain panels
• Regravelling of shoulders.

CHARLES STREET UPGRADING
The project is for the upgrading/doubling of Charles Street between Atterbury Road and Queen Wilhelmina Drive. The scope requires the implementation of a 4-lane dual carriageway road with new storm water infrastructure

BRT SECTION 5 JOHANNESBURG
The implementation of the Bus Rapid Transit System which is characterized by dedicated bus lanes, bus stations in the median, level boarding, pedestrian walkways and crossings.
The project was done as a design construct initiative between Lonerock, Katide, Nyeleti and UWP engineers. The design is complex in that both geometrically and in terms of pavement structural capacity various interregnal design consideration had to be perused.
A major design concern were right turning movement across bus lanes, widening the carriageway and its effect on existing land owners and 13 plus ton axel loads on the bus lanes. In some areas 5m high reinforced concrete retaining wall were erected.
