| Project Name | Client | No of Lots | MUS Services |
|
| Emerald Lakes (2000-2010) |
Nifsan Pty Ltd | 1,300 lots | Project Co-ordination and Civil Engineering Design and Supervision. The project is a mixed commercial, residential and mid-rise unit development. Project challenges were surmounted by innovative bridge crossings, a tidal exchange and floodway outlet. Extensive flood constraints dictated a fine balance of cut and fill. The site was in a significant flood plain and involved excavation of a large lake, treatment of severe acid sulphate soils and filling of areas for development including treatment of underlying marine clays. | |
| Park Lake (2004-2008) |
Sunland Group | 200 lots (of 600 lots) | Project Co-ordination, Town Planning, and Civil Engineering Design and Supervision. The project included a large decorative lake, playing field, playground and swimming pool complex. | |
| Regatta Waters (2004-2008) |
Sunland Group (sold part way through) | 250 lots (of 800 lots) | Project Co-ordination, Town Planning, and Civil Engineering Design and Supervision. The project was on a sand mining site and included tidy up of the lake and quarry area. | |
| Pacific Beach (Precinct A&B) |
Pacific International Development Corporation | 600 lots | Project Co-ordination, Town Planning, and Civil Engineering Design and Supervision. The site was on sand and a large lake was constructed for fill. Being next to a commercial airport it involved significant planning constraints. The balance of the site was held for several years and eventually resumed for a major interstate highway. MUS developed a model for this which maximised the compensation paid to the client. | |
| Various Town house Sites (1994-2007) |
Sunland Group | 30-300 units | Project Co-ordination, Town Planning, and Civil Engineering Design and Supervision. | |
| Ormeau Hills (1995-2005) |
MCHA Pty Ltd | 650 lots | Project Co-ordination, Town Planning, and Civil Engineering Design and Supervision. Development included significant external infrastructure and a high-level pressure pump water supply area. | |
| Mudgeeraba Forest (1993-2005) |
Barrie Miller | 200 rural residential lots | Project Co-ordination, Town Planning, and Civil Engineering Design and Supervision. The award-winning project contained innovative engineering to fit in within eco-environmental objectives. The project included a pressure system for high level water supply. | |
| Monterey Keys (1992-2004) |
Kabale Holdings | 1,200 lots | Project Coordination, Town Planning and Civil Engineering Design and Supervision for 1,200 lots around a lake (1,500,000m3) over marine clays and sand. Project challenges were solved by a 200 metre bridge access over Saltwater Creek, a lock for boat access, and the introduction of vacuum sewer to Queensland. | |
| Glenwood (1995-2003) |
Nifsan Pty Ltd | 1,200 lots | Civil Engineering Design and Supervision. Development was partially on flood plain and required compensatory earthworks and fill. | |
| Gaven Heights (1993-2002) |
Sunland Group | 650 lots + townhouse sites | Project Co-ordination, Town Planning, and Civil Engineering Design and Supervision. Development was in steep and varied terrain and included the implementation of large rock walls for level blocks.
