We also worked with external laboratories to confirm the results and streamline the sampling and approval process for each batch.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, we used the space within our sandplant to stockpile approved batches of 2A Filter Sand ready for delivery. River Sands was also able to perform the specialised blending onsite to meet the required specifications.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>By using River Sands products, Fulton Hogan was assured of the quality of the sand and its reputation within the industry from other successful projects. Our efficiency within the manufacturing, testing and approval process guaranteed we were within the time constraints of the project timeline. Our team worked closely with the project site management to ensure there was sufficient product throughout the construction timeline, this was greatly assisted by our ability to stockpile approved batches at the sandplant.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of using our 2A Filter Sand, the Sideling Creek Dam upgrades will function for a long period of time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":520,"template":"","case_category":[46],"class_list":["post-420","case_study","type-case_study","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","case_category-bioretention"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!--
