Budds Farm WTW, Havant
Massive TRIO arrangements produce
high quality finish
PERI‘s core product, the TRIO wall formwork panel system is currently being used to construct a new 9 m high aeration tank for the extension of an existing wastewater treatment facility at Budds Farm in Havant, Hampshire.
The consortium 4Delivery, comprising United Utilities, Costain and Montgomery Watson Harza, has appointed MJ Gallagher Contracts Ltd. to construct a tank which has a 9,000 m² area, with dividing and surrounding walls totaling 1.7 km at Budd’s Farm in Havant. Site Manager, Martin Ansell of MJ Gallagher was responsible for specifying the PERI TRIO formwork having had past success with the system.
5,000 m³ of concrete is being used to create the base and just over 5,000 m³ for the walls, with one base pour and four wall pours a week. Four sets of 9 m high x 22 m long TRIO panel arrangements were assembled on the ground with BFD couplers and TAR 85 Walers. They were then turned over and covered with an extra layer of plywood in order to produce the desired concrete finish before being raised into position ready for pouring. 44 smaller panels 0.72 m x 1.20 m have been ordered to finish the upper level of the tank.
The Budds Farm new tank is scheduled for completion in February 2007. The scheme is due for completion in March 2008.

Contracts Manager
“We had plenty of TRIO panels in stock (3,000 m2) and – as we find the system easy to handle and fast to erect – it suits our requirements. PERI TRIO is the best system for the 9 m high walls. For the first time we also used the TRIO concreting platforms and they were very successful.”
