Foundations and ground treatment
Innovative foundation solutions and ground treatment options are critical to successful outcomes
for today’s industrial developments. Challenging
subsurface conditions require specialist geotechnical
expertise to ensure appropriate foundation solutions
are developed.
Tonkin & Taylor’s experienced geotechnical engineers
specialise in innovative foundation and ground
treatment solutions. Contact is maintained with
leading contractors and industry innovators and this
provides us with an up-to-date understanding of
the latest construction techniques. This knowledge,
coupled with our extensive track record and
geotechnical database, enables us to develop
sound concepts at an early stage of a project, saving
time and cost.
Expertise
T&T has a strong reputation for providing economic,
practical, well engineered solutions for industrial
developments. Our expertise covers:
- Desk study and preliminary assessments of
foundation and ground treatment solutions
- Site investigations, including specialist field
and laboratory testing
- Assessment of appropriate shallow and deep
foundation options
- Evaluation of ground treatment solutions (e.g.
dynamic compaction, vibro-probe)
- Specialist analysis of heavily loaded floor slabs
- Preparation of specifications tailored to site
conditions
- Experienced construction supervision
- Site monitoring and control.
We work closely with market leaders in the structural
engineering sector and through these well established
associations have a sound appreciation of key design
interface issues at foundation level.
Our team can provide important technical advice at
the project inception stage and work closely with
project owners to identify ground risks early on,
enabling investigations to be focussed on determining
feasible foundation solutions.
An ongoing role through the investigation, design and
construction phases will ensure the maximum benefit
of T&T’s specialist expertise is provided for any
development project.
