Orrcon Steel has helped create some of Australia’s most iconic infrastructure and unique steel projects.
See below some examples of our work…
The Port River Expressway is designed to provide superior access to Port Adelaide’s Outer Harbor by allowing road and rail transport to bypass the area’s central business district. Integral to the Expressway are 2 x 40 metre, single span bridges which open over the Port River. Abigroup relied on Orrcon Steel Smart Steel Hollow Sections to provide the solid foundations to support these bridges.
The new 10th wharf at the Port of Brisbane ensures that one of the most dynamic ports in Australia remains highly efficient and continues to support strong growth in Queensland’s economy, international trade and industry. The wharf incorporates the use of 6,000 tonnes of large diameter spiral welded pipe supplied by leading steel pipe and tube manufacturer and supplier, Orrcon Steel.
Australian Made Orrcon Steel Smart Steel Hollow Sections play a large part in the construction of four stations on the new PerthMandurah railway project valued at over $300 million.
An arched busway through a sunken roadway adjacent to a golf course was an architectural challenge, requiring a unique blend of aesthetics and functionality. Creative use of Orrcon Smart Steel Hollow Sections in Section 5B of Brisbane’s Inner Northern Busway successfully met this challenge.
The Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre was reconstructed for the 2006 Commonwealth Games and is an excellent example of the creative use of Orrcon Steel’s Smart Steel Hollow Sections.
The 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne were a fitting debut for the magnificent new Northern Stand at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). The three year redevelopment project valued at $434 million used approximately 1000 tonnes of Orrcon Steel’s Smart Steel Hollow Sections in the support columns, seating framework and roof structure.
Orrcon Steel’s Smart Steel Hollow Sections are the jewel in the crown of Q1, an architectural masterpiece, which at 322.5 metres officially ranks as the world’s tallest residential tower.
