Civil Engineering

A thorough understanding of the existing ground conditions is essential before any construction begins. Our ground investigation services provide vital information that informs every subsequent stage of the project. We employ various techniques to assess soil type, density, permeability, and the presence of contaminants. This data allows us to determine the ground’s stability, identify potential drainage issues, and design appropriate solutions.

Many sites require significant earthworks to achieve the correct levels and gradients. Our expertise in earthworks covers excavation, cut and fill, and compaction to create a stable and level base. We use stabilization techniques to address problematic ground conditions, such as weak or unstable soils.

Effective drainage is crucial for maintaining a playable, long-lasting sports pitch. Our engineers design drainage systems tailored to your specific site conditions and sport. We consider soil permeability, flood zones, discharge rates and planning conditions to determine the optimal drainage layout. We install high-performance drainage networks to remove excess water from the playing surface.

The sub-base is a critical structural element that provides load-bearing support and contributes to adequate drainage. We construct robust sub-bases using carefully selected and graded aggregates, ensuring compaction and stability. The specific composition and depth of the sub-base are determined by factors such as the sport being played and the underlying conditions. A well constructed sub-base construction prevents surface deformation and contributes to a sports surface’s overall longevity and performance.
