About Us.
Serving South Australia since 1983
Torrens Building & Civil have been completing complex and challenging jobs across South Australia for the past 30 years. Prior to this we were known as John Thring Civil. We are experienced in all facets of civil construction and are best known for our specialisation in completing concrete structures. Torrens Building & Civil Pty Ltd, being a Tier 1 category builder, have the ability to self-perform all of the required work on a project with all our own employees and equipment. We can take on the project risk and major procurement functions as needed from start to finish.
Specialty: Complex Concrete Fabrication
We have carved out a unique niche in the industry with his deep knowledge of diverse concrete form work. As evidenced in highly specialised work such as the O-Bahn City Access Project as well as the construction of a rocket launch pad for Southern Launch on Eyre Peninsula. Other recent high profile projects include the RAH Preworks and the South Rd Superway Preworks. The Royal Adelaide Hospital Preworks have required the shoring and stabilising of a number of areas with concrete retaining walls. The walls have varied in construction type, height and thickness and have been constructed in accordance with their intended use. The recently completed and extensive concrete structure for the Adelaide Mushroom Farm shows another facet of our specialisation. In this project the floors, walls and roof of the composting warehouse were all poured in situ, extensive steelwork and custom forms were created especially for this ambitious project.
We have the plant and equipment, and the know-how
We have considerable experience across all delivery models for construction achieving notable success for clients with Early Contractor Involvement (ECI), Design & Construct (D&C) and Construct only projects.
