technology to mechanical customisation of plant and equipment. Innovative design techniques enable
us devise bespoke mould profiles and machine modifications, offering unique solutions or alternatives

Health and Safety
Health and Safety is a fundamental and core
management responsibility at all levels in
SIAC Construction Ltd and it is company
policy to ensure that all activities are
executed and managed in accordance with
its Company Safety Statement and current
Health & Safety Regulations.
Our slipform paving division operates
its own specific Safety Statement and
Policy, to reflect the risks associated
with the slipform operation. We have
a comprehensive Health & Safety
management system. We benchmark
our Health &Safety performance
against the best industry standards
and recognise the need for continuous
improvement
SIAC is one of a very select number
of companies that have been
awarded Safe – T Cert accreditation.
This is in recognition of the company’s
health and safety management
performance and standards.
SIAC has also been granted awards
from the National Irish Safety Organisation
(NISO) and the British Safety Council (BSC).
Company Environmental
Management
SIAC is committed to a policy of
environmental protection and to minimise
the environmental impact of its operation.
In addition to the Safe - T Cert, SIAC is
certified with ISO 14001 which is a widely
recognised international standard for
environmental management.
Concrete has been proven to be a
sustainable and extremely durable material
with proven carbon emission savings to that
of steel throughout its life cycle.
Quality Assurance
Our management systems aim to exceed
the requirements of the international quality
assurance standard ISO 9001:2000.
These management systems ensure that
clients’ requirements are met and that
this can be demonstrated at any point in
a project.
Our slipform operation has been
independently accredited to the standard
of ISO 9001:2000. In addition to rigorous
external auditing by independent accreditation
bodies, there is an on-going process of
internal auditing at project and head-office
level. As part of this process, we formally
assess our suppliers and sub-contractors
to ensure that the service they provide
is also in compliance with our clients'
requirements.
Drainage Solutions
A wide range of drainage solutions are
available based on the design requirements
and compliance with the relevant
specification. Open systems such as
Surface Water Channel providing widths
ranging from 350mm to 2.0m are a
frequently used detail. Closed systems
such as Slot drain or Kerb & Slot are an
ideal option where space is at a premium.
An additional benefit in using one or a
combination of our drainage solutions is
a significant reduction in the number of
catchpits required on a longitudinal stretch
of highway. The diameter of the pipe
section ranges from 250mm to 450mm
based on hydrological design criteria.

Association is the chief promoter of
concrete barrier with licence holders
currently in UK, Ireland, Norway and Israel.

accordance with EN 1317 permitting it to

environment throughout Europe.

Kerbing
Slipform Kerbing has long been the
edge restraint product of choice for
road construction and site development
in Ireland. The key benefits it generates
over conventional types of kerbing solution
on the market are:
•
Versatility: slipform kerb can be formed
to any practical shape or height required.
•
Speed: hourly outputs greatly exceed
those of conventional pre-cast products,
making the process extremely
commercially competitive.
•
Health & Safety: no exposure to manual
handling and possible heavy lifting injuries.
•
Durability: air entrained concrete has
proven less susceptible to frost damage
versus other concrete mixes.
