Service

Gajawari KW constructs engineered foundation pads for infrastructure, plant, and structural installations across WA.

Pads are built to geotechnical spec with controlled compaction, material layering, and dimensional accuracy for long-term stability under load.

Scope & Execution

We construct foundation pads to structural and geotechnical requirements, starting from subgrade preparation through to finished pad elevation. Material types, compaction targets, and pad dimensions are executed to certified designs, with QA documentation captured across each lift.

Fill is placed in compacted layers with moisture conditioning and density verification at each stage. Lift thickness is controlled to prevent differential settlement and ensure uniform load distribution. Material origin and compaction effort are logged to maintain traceability and compliance.

Pads are machine-trimmed to final elevation with tolerances verified via survey. Surface crossfall, elevation points, and interface tie-ins are checked against design models to ensure structural compatibility and immediate build-readiness for footings or slabs.

We apply surface treatments matched to project requirements, including sealing, dust suppression, or chemical stabilisation. These treatments enhance surface durability, reduce erosion, and provide a clean working platform for structural activities or slab formwork installation.

Where pads interface with structural pours, we construct edge containment using formwork, bunds, or keyed profiles. This supports follow-on concrete works, prevents edge loss, and ensures clean transitions between pad and permanent structure.
