Mamhead Slipway Defence | Devon
CASE STUDY MAMHEAD SLIPWAY East Devon District Council Exmouth, Devon, United Kingdom As part of the ongoing regeneration of facilities in Exmouth, Devon, there was a requirement to demolish and replace the existing Mamhead Slipway and adjacent boat trailer maneuvering area. The original slipway was in a poor state of repair due to tidal movement causing a reduction in bed levels which had undermined the piled foundations leaving voids beneath the concrete slipway slab. These voids made the structure unserviceable and potentially dangerous. Project owner EAST DEVON DISTRICT COUNCIL Product DURUS S400 Synthetic Macro Fibre Function DURUS S400 - Replace conventional steel mesh reinforcement to reduce construction time and eliminate reduced service life due to steel corrosion in a marine environment. Contractor Raymond Brown Construction Challenge This foundation allowed the reinforced concrete slipway to be The Environment Agency guidance for marine and coastal fully ground bearing and therefore utilise Synthetic Macro Fibre concrete requires elimination of as much traditional steel fabric as reinforcement as an effective alternative to steel mesh. practicable. Due to the water level and tidal fluctuations, works for the Owing to challanging tidal conditions and wave action, the slipway had to take place behind a cofferdam provided by engineering solution for this project needed to provide a stable interlocking sheet piles.

Well Here We Go Again and Another Season of Football with What We Now Call the EXETER & DISTRICT YOUTH LEAGUE Sponsored by Red Post Media Solutions
EXETER & DISTRICT YOUTH FOOTBALL LEAGUE 1 EXETER & DISTRICT YOUTH FOOTBALL LEAGUE Well here we go again and another season of Football with what we now call THE EXETER & DISTRICT YOUTH LEAGUE sponsored by Red Post Media Solutions. Towards the end of the 2007/08 season we were approached by what seemed to be an overwhelming majority of our Under-12 clubs who asked if we would provide football for them the following year at under-13 and as a result of the ‘demand’, we agreed. Much has been made of this move and it is only fair to have recorded that we, as a League, and certainly yours truly as Chairman, have never enforced any decision upon the members clubs. Indeed the Management mission is to assist and arrange the provision of what the majority of member clubs wish for. We now offer mini soccer for the age groups under-8, 9 and 10 and then it’s competitive football for the under 11, 12 and 13 age groups. We have, this year, complied with the Football Associations wishes and dispensed with a Cup competition for the under-8s and so our finals day in 2009 will not involve that age group. During the summer we welcomed aboard, as new sponsors Red Post, and they are the driving force behind our fabulous website which keeps everybody up to date with everything that they need to know or indeed find out about. It will not have escaped anybody with half an eye on the media that in the world of professional football there is a serious drive to improve the behaviour of players on the pitch - and I would like to ask ALL our member clubs to ensure that they ‘do their bit’ to help with a campaign of greater RESPECT for both the officials and indeed everybody else connected with the game. -
