Suitable intersection layout and road geometry plays a big part in the functionality and safety of a road. Having vast experience in this area - from the design of major arterial roundabouts and intersections to the design of haul roads, Proform Civil consultants are highly experienced in optimizing geometric road design and intersection layouts to suit their habitat and reduce construction cost.

Road geometry is often dictated by the design speed. Proform Civil calculates horizontal and vertical curvature as well as superelevation to ensure safe and comfortable cornering can be achieved.

With the use of 3D modelling, Proform Civil calculates sight distances relevant to speed and reaction time to ensure safe overtaking and stopping distances can be achieved.

With the use of Vehicle turning path modelling, Proform Civil calculates the correct road widths to ensure vehicles can traverse through the road network without collision.

Storm water run off can create hazardous situations for drivers and be damaging to property. Having completed a vast number of drainage projects, including flood mitigation design and basin design, Proform Civil is highly proficient in the design of drainage networks.

With the use of advanced stormwater modelling software and rainfall data, Proform Civil Consultants are able to calculate and produce:

• Catchment analysis
• Culvert sizing
• Basin sizing
• Gutter flow widths

Suitable pavement is a key factor to the lifespan of a road or car park. While an under designed pavement can lead to early failure, over design can prove to be an inefficient use off resources.

Traffic loading and sub grade quality play a significant role in finding the right balance of material for a pavement.

Proform Civil is able to undertake pavement design in house for minor projects and coordinate testing and investigation to ensure a suitable pavement is obtained for larger projects.

The correct signage and pavement markings play a key role in road safety and driver awareness.

Proform Civil has a history of projects designed with effective signage and pavement marking.

Proform Civil is able to document and design the correct signage and pavement marking suitable for the relevant approving authority.

Civil Engineering Documents play a key role in communicating the intention of a design for construction. Proform Civil drawings are tailored to the project requirements whether they be used for presentation to key project stake holders or for the purpose of construction.

Typical Civil Drawings:

• Plan & Profiles
• Cross Sections
• Intersection Details
• Drainage Designs
• Service Relocation Plans
• General Arrangements
• Construction Setout Plans
• Land Resumption Plans
• Contour and Volume Plans
• Signage and Pavement Marking Plans

Knowing how much a civil project may cost to install can assist with budgeting and determining the cost benefit of optional design's.

Proform Civil can provide accurate costings and quantities using the latest design technology software to model and accurately calculate volumes and areas.

Civil engineering and design highly relies on quality feature survey. For years we have developed our requirements and criteria for feature survey's to ensure suitable data for civil design.

We now undertake and provide our own in-house engineering and feature surveys. Our survey staff has over twenty years' experience in the industry and work together with our designer's to ensure survey's meet project requirements.

Proform Civil is at the forefront of the latest civil construction techniques and we can provide the most adaptive survey pickup and setout methodology relevant to the nature of the project.

We can provide project management, specification & tendering services on small to mid-size projects.

Proform Civil is a specialist consultant in civil design, however on previous projects, it has been required to coordinate a range of contractors and consultants to provide the following.

• Geotech Reports
• Road Safety Audits
• Structural Certification
• Street lighting & Electrical
• Traffic Analysis
• Service Locators

The useability and efficiency of a car park starts at the planning stage and multiple conceptual layouts are often key to optimize car park design.

Proform Civil has vast experience providing car park design's compatible with AS2890 for schools, recreation area's and private developments.

Proform Civil provides many other services in the civil consulting area such as;

• Heavy vehicle haul route assessment, design & Main Roads Approvals
• Pavement marking barrier line assessments, design & Main Roads Approval
• Construction Sequencing
• Shire Approvals for DA
• Main Roads Permits & Approvals
