Services
Structural Engineering
We provide comprehensive structural engineering services from concept to completion. Our expertise covers all materials including steel, concrete, and timber, with specialisms in complex structural analysis and artwork integration. We collaborate closely with architects to ensure cost-effective, buildable solutions that align with aesthetic requirements while maintaining technical excellence and regulatory compliance.
Geotechnical Services
Our geotechnical team specialises in foundation design and ground risk management. We deliver solutions for challenging sites including brownfield remediation, slope stabilisation, and deep basement construction. Services range from desk studies to full geotechnical design, addressing ground contamination and environmental factors through integrated analysis and innovative engineering approaches tailored to project-specific conditions.
Civil Engineering
We offer civil engineering solutions for road, drainage, and utility infrastructure projects. Our capabilities include highway design, sustainable drainage systems (SUDS), and solar/wind farm access roads. Using advanced software, we create site-specific designs that consider ground conditions, longevity, and maintenance requirements while ensuring alignment with client objectives and regulatory standards.
Forensic Engineering
Our forensic engineering services investigate structural failures and defects for legal and insurance clients. We conduct detailed inspections, material testing, and computer modelling to determine root causes. We produce court-compliant reports and provide expert witness testimony, offering proportionate solutions that align with litigation budgets and deadlines while maintaining technical accuracy and impartiality.
Sustainable Solutions
We integrate sustainability across all projects through material innovation and energy-efficient design. Our approach includes reusing fallen trees for construction, stabilised soil mixtures, and lime/PFA railway cutting stabilisation. We focus on reducing carbon footprints through renewable materials, efficient resource use, and designs that prioritise environmental impact considerations in both new builds and refurbishments.
