Fundamentally, our approach is based on geotechnical risk and value management. Uncertainty in ground conditions is a major source of cost and programme risks for all civil and structural engineering projects. The effective management of these risks requires the application of expert geotechnical engineering and geological skills from project inception through planning stages to design and construction.
