Geoenvironmental Engineering
Our geoenvironmental capability covers ground engineering and ground condition assessment including geotechnics, geology, hydrology and hydrogeology, civil, waste and contamination services. Specialist engineers and environmental scientists apply their skills to the specific challenges in urban design, particularly the development of former industrial brownfield sites where comprehensive assessment and investigation is required to develop remediation solutions prior to development.
Geoenvironmental engineering is critical in masterplanning of any project through designing to provide the most cost-effective solutions and potentially influencing the site use. Through these processes, the aspirations of developers are brought together with those of planning authorities and regulatory bodies such as the Environment Agency.
These solutions are generated by a series of desk top studies, extensive sampling and analysis, conceptual models, risk assessments and a thorough knowledge of contaminated land issues, remediation technologies and landfill restrictions and requirements.
