One cannot overstate the importance of structural integrity in every project, big or small
With taps running dry and the infrastructure under pressure, Gauteng have continued to have water woes. Both Kempton Park and Brixton promise to significantly improve supply and infrastructure resilience.

Situated on the western edge of Ekurhuleni, the new Kempton Park water tower boasts an impressive 43-metre conical structure capable of storing 2.5 megalitres of water. This will significantly alleviate water shortages in a region often plagued by high demand. Meanwhile, a similar slanted wall structure in Brixton is expected to be completed by the end of 2025, helping to address the pressing needs of a water-stressed area in Johannesburg.
Uni-Span, a trusted name in structural engineering for over 36 years, played a central role in these developments, providing the critical framework that supports essential public assets throughout Africa, including bridges and water reservoirs. The company’s expertise is instrumental in the complex design of temporary works, ensuring the towers are built to withstand extreme conditions while maintaining safety and reliability.
“As the economy grows and investment into infrastructure continues, one cannot overstate the importance of structural integrity in every project, big and small. Our formwork, but most importantly our expert engineers, are critical in ensuring stability as these compounded structures are painstakingly put together. From the start of each project, our engineers are present on site to ensure correct assembly and maintenance of each part of the formwork, a commitment I believe sets us apart.” Damant said.
