Technical expertise
We have capabilities in Geotechnical Engineering, Engineering Geology, Geoenvironmental Engineering, Mining Engineering and Mineral Processing. We also provide expert witness services in these disciplines. We operate up to date engineering software to enable efficient design and are invested in the BIM processes. Guided by our team of experienced senior engineers, our products are innovative but simple designs. The emphasis is on buildable and efficient design presented on clear construction drawings.
Sectors
We work on ground engineering projects across most sectors. Many of our projects are in property and transport infrastructure, but we also have a specialist mining team, tackle coastal work, conduct geoenvironmental assessments and containment design. From tall buildings through highway underpasses to mining schemes, whatever your project, we will have previously seen the ground engineering problems you are encountering and provided appropriate solutions.
Projects
We are proud to have been at the forefront of iconic projects over the years. Our engineers have influenced infrastructure across Europe, the Middle East and globally. We have been at the leading edge of ground engineering research, helped guide British, European and International Standards, and brought new techniques to the UK. Each project presents a fresh challenge, and each success is a reflection of the dedication and flexibility of our engineers.
Project highlights
These projects demonstrate the wide variety of ground engineering challenges our teams face. While it is not possible to provide information here on all of the work we have undertaken, we are always happy to provide specific examples on request.
