Ground Investigation
Our ground investigation service involves assessing the physical properties of soil or rock beneath a site to determine its suitability for construction purposes. We use state-of-the-art equipment such as drilling rigs to collect samples from different depths below the surface. These samples are then analyzed in our laboratory using advanced testing techniques to provide accurate data on soil strength parameters.
Geotechnical Engineering
Our geotechnical engineering service involves designing foundations for structures based on site-specific conditions such as soil type or groundwater levels. We use computer modeling software to simulate different scenarios so that we can identify potential problems before they occur during construction.
Contaminated Land Assessment
Our contaminated land assessment service involves identifying any potential risks associated with hazardous substances present on-site due to previous industrial activities or other sources like landfill sites nearby. We carry out detailed investigations using sampling techniques followed by laboratory analysis before providing recommendations for remediation.
Environmental Monitoring
Our environmental monitoring service involves assessing the impact of construction activities on the surrounding environment. We use a range of techniques such as air quality monitoring, noise and vibration monitoring, and water quality testing to ensure that our clients comply with relevant regulations.
Waste Management Consultancy
Our waste management consultancy service involves advising clients on how to manage their waste effectively. We help them develop strategies for reducing waste generation, recycling materials where possible, and disposing of any remaining waste in an environmentally responsible manner.
Sustainability Advice
Our sustainability advice service involves helping clients reduce their carbon footprint by implementing sustainable practices like using renewable energy sources or reducing energy consumption through building design or retrofitting existing buildings.
Expert Witness Services
Our expert witness services involve providing independent expert opinions in legal disputes related to geotechnical or environmental issues. Our team has extensive experience in providing evidence in court cases and arbitration hearings.
