Client.
Liverpool Plains Shire Council
Location.
Project Description.
Ductile Consulting Engineers provided; structural and mechanical condition assessments of Liverpool Plains Shire Councils swimming pool facilities at Quirindi and Werris Creek.
Our structural and mechanical inspectors undertook thorough inspections of the facilities and prepared condition assessment reports. From these reports, we developed:
- Options assessment report for repairs; and
- Scope of work documents for concrete repairs.
The facilities were in varying condition – with some components requiring replacement, and other components being in good condition. Ductile Consulting Engineers assessment provided a priority list of works to enable expenditure to be managed and spread over a number of years.
Other Projects.

Port Macquarie Hastings Council engaged Ductile Consulting Engineers to assess heavy vehicle capacity across its bridge network. Ductile evaluated 91 bridges and, using automated tools, delivered efficient insights and clear recommendations to guide access.
Orlando St Bridge Level 3 Inspection
Routine inspections of the Orlando St Bridge revealed significant deterioration, leading to Ductile Consulting Engineers being engaged. Their analysis confirmed no load restriction was needed and informed repairs to extend the bridge’s life by at least 30 years at a fraction of replacement cost.
