History

The S.E.M. Group was originally established in 1976 by Harry and Janice Wauer as Salisbury Earthmovers Pty. Ltd. as an earth moving sub-contractor. In 1996 the company changed its name to S.E.M. Civil to reflect a shift from being an earth moving sub-contractor to a civil contractor and principal contractor. In 2000 S.E.M. Civil acquired CivilCorp Pty Ltd and later in 2002 Foundation Systems, a mini-piling and under pining foundation company added to the growing capabilities of the S.E.M. Group. In 2008 it established a joint venture with SFL Group and through that entity of SFL-SA Ltd added screw piling to their list of abilities. In May 2010, the S.E.M. Group expanded again, this time acquiring 24/7 Traffic Control and created S.E.M. Traffic Control.

If the last 40 years have taught us anything is that anything is possible and we are looking forward to the next 40 years in Civil Construction in South Australia, expanding and gaining new opportunities.
