Slinging Sand on a New Water Pipeline

Discover the Wagga Wagga Project

Riverina Water engaged ecoDynamics to address the significant task of backfilling 45 kilometres of pipeline trenches with sand. The project aims to lay water pipes to provide the nearby towns with a reliable water supply. While Riverina Water used a trencher to create the pipeline, ecoDynamics was tasked with following closely behind to backfill the trenches with our innovative solution.

The primary challenge was to identify a method that could efficiently and economically backfill the trenches without compromising environmental standards. Traditional methods were either too slow or failed to meet environmental requirements. ecoDynamics proposed an innovative solution: using a slinger truck to streamline the backfilling process. This approach not only increased efficiency but also ensured that environmental considerations were fully addressed.

    The ecoDynamics Slinger Truck

    Using a slinger truck for sand delivery in trench backfilling offers significant advantages over traditional methods. This innovative approach enhances efficiency by accurately distributing sand with conveyor belts, reducing both costs and environmental impact. Additionally, it improves safety, especially in challenging terrain, by minimising the need for heavy machinery and manual labour.

Scope of Work:

Backfilling 45 kilometers of water trenches with sand.

ecoDynamics’ deployment of the slinger truck exemplified innovation in environmental project management. This approach provided Riverina Water with a sustainable solution to the trench backfilling challenge. By integrating advanced technology, the project not only met but exceeded expectations, setting a new standard for future projects in promoting greener practices.
