About Construction Techniques
BBR Contech’s story began in the 1950s, when the Government called for tenders for the Roxburgh Dam. That contract was won by an international joint venture that included Conrad Zschokke, a contractor from Switzerland.
Once the project was complete Zschokke established a local presence, joining a Masterton company to form Rigg Zschokke. When in the early 1960s projects started requiring post-tensioning technology, Zschokke’s Swiss-based business associate BBR was in the perfect position to help. In 1963 BBR New Zealand was born. Adding to the story was a young engineering graduate called Rob Irwin, who had travelled to Europe in 1961 and secured a job with Conrad Zschokke. Antonio Brandestini, who also worked for Conrad Zschokke, was one of BBR New Zealand’s founders.
Rob went on to gain post-tensioning experience in Switzerland, then in 1966 returned with his skills and experience to take over the running of the team at BBR New Zealand. This was the start of BBR Contech as we now know it. In the half-century since 1963, a series of mergers and acquisitions has seen the company change names, market new skills and techniques and undertake a diverse range of projects in New Zealand and overseas. Throughout, its core capabilities have remained a constant: harnessing BBR’s world-leading post-tensioning technology and partnering with other global technology specialists to complete ground anchoring, construction engineering and structural maintenance, repair and retrofitting projects.
Today, the company is known as BBR Contech, with headquarters in Auckland, offices in Wellington and Christchurch, and a dedicated team of some 70 specialists working with clients nationwide. It’s widely recognised for its outstanding technical expertise and is an active member of the international BBR Network, working in close collaboration with other members around the world.
