Thorough understanding and appreciation of the existing geotechnical and geological conditions at a site is paramount to the success of any project, both commercially and practically. A lack of understanding of the constraints can result in significant consequences including unnecessary expenses from overly conservative designs and program delays. Comprehensive geo-environmental assessments are crucial in mitigating these risks, which is why we offer site investigation services as part of our holistic package alongside our civil and structural engineering services. This allows us to ensure that the investigations carried out on all our projects are tailored specifically to suit what we require, with a co-ordinated approach in arriving at the most appropriate below ground solutions on each project.
We conduct detailed Phase I Geotechnical Desk Studies to assess geological, environmental and historical data, identifying potential risks and constraints for developments.
Including a wide range of investigation techniques such as:
We prepare Remediation Method Statements (RMS) outlining the practical remedial actions required to address any findings from the Phase 2 investigations. We ensure compliance with regulatory requirements and stakeholder expectations throughout.
We engage with statutory environmental authorities to obtain approvals for geotechnical designs and remediation strategies. Our proactive approach ensures compliance with statutory requirements resulting in project continuity through planning stages.
