‘Car Parks’

A Buildingtalk guide

Start with the news release Maccaferri reinforced soil solution from Maccaferri, which we summarised at the time by saying "Maccaferri complex reinforced soil structure spans drainage culvert as part of the Inverness Parks Farm distributor road project.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Instant Road Repair for pothole repair from Instarmac: "Ultracrete Instant Road Repair is an instant, first time permanent reinstatement, that when used with SCJ bitumen cold joint sealer and tack coat, can be compacted and trafficked immediately. ".

In August 2011, we covered the news from Bobcat EMEA - take a look at Bobcat Loader used to clear snow in East Yorkshire which says: "Building contractor Herdsman Builders has purchased a Bobcat S100 skid-steer loader and attachments to offer a snow and ice clearance service in the East Yorkshire area.".

Take a look also at the news release from ABC+D, Betafence looks at specifying the correct fencing, as well as Berry Systems delivers bespoke barrier system from Berry Systems, and Hydro Stormbloc system awarded BBA certification from Hydro International.
