One of the areas in which our ‘one stop shop’ capability is found particularly useful by clients is in the design of foundations and substructures, for building and civil engineering structures. 

We are frequently asked to provide foundation and substructure design services following on from advising on site reclamation, remediation or stabilisation, and/or in association with the design, supervision and reporting of site investigations. This means that all issues related to the ground are placed in one ‘safe pair of hands’, and can be dealt with by integrated teams of environmentalists, geologists and engineers who are used to working as a team.

Where site conditions require gas protection measures in the substructure design, our in-house gas specialists can provide the necessary advice.
