Project Overview

Shumba Engineering Services was appointed as the engineering consultant for the Mandela Park Street Paving project, with a focus on structural oversight and integrated design solutions. Though the project involved civil upgrades, the structural team played a crucial role in ensuring the long-term durability and safety of the newly developed infrastructure. 

Scope of Work

  • Structural assessment of existing pavement and sub-base layers 
  • Load-bearing analysis to accommodate mixed traffic flow 
  • Design oversight of reinforced concrete structures within the stormwater drainage system 
  • Material specification to meet structural integrity standards 
  • Integration of civil and structural disciplines in the overall engineering design 
  • On-site engineering supervision to ensure compliance with structural design

Project Outcome

The project successfully delivered structurally sound and reliable access roads, improved stormwater flow systems, and upgraded street paving. All components were designed and executed with a focus on long-term functionality, safety, and structural resilience.

Community Impact

This project significantly improved connectivity and accessibility within Mandela Park. Residents now benefit from safer, more durable roads, improved stormwater drainage, and upgraded public infrastructure, positively impacting daily commuting, emergency access, and overall quality of life.
