Capabilities

Shoring Solutions

Temporary shoring systems designed to provide lateral support to soil masses surrounding excavations, ensuring stability and protecting adjacent structures.

  • Soldier Beam and Lagging

    An earth retention method involving the installation of vertical steel beams at regular intervals along an excavation perimeter.

  • Sheet Pile

    Interlocking retaining wall elements driven or vibrated into the ground to form a continuous barrier that retains soil or water.

  • Secant Pile

    Retaining walls constructed by drilling and concreting overlapping vertical primary and secondary piles.

  • Soil Nail Wall

    A ground reinforcement technique where steel bars are drilled and grouted into an existing slope or excavation face at an angle.

Tunneling Solutions

Comprehensive engineering for underground pathways, navigating challenging geological conditions with customized designs.

  • Tunnel Engineering

    Tunnel design and underground construction solutions spanning from initial feasibility and detailed design through to program management and on-site technical assistance.

  • Trenchless Engineering

    Advanced trenchless solutions for utilities design in soft ground and hard rock, incorporating pipe materials evaluation and alignment optimization.

Geotechnical Solutions

Specialized geotechnical analysis, modeling, and ground treatment strategies for infrastructure development.

  • Geotechnical Engineering

    Comprehensive subterranean analysis encompassing site investigation, characterization, advanced ground modeling, and geo-digital solutions like subsurface Building Information Modeling (BIM).

  • Numerical Modeling

    Sophisticated analytical modeling to simulate and solve complex geotechnical and underground structural challenges.

  • Seismic Site Response Analysis

    Evaluations of how soil layers modify seismic wave characteristics traveling from bedrock to the ground surface.

  • Ground Improvement

    Techniques to enhance the engineering properties of soil, increasing strength, reducing compressibility, and mitigating liquefaction potential.

  • Deep Foundations

    Structural systems such as piles, piers, and caissons that transfer loads to deeper, more competent soil or rock strata.

  • Slope Stability

    Analysis of natural or engineered slopes to assess resistance against failure caused by gravity, water pressure, or external factors.

Sustainability

Integration of decarbonization strategies into underground construction, including early estimation of embodied carbon during the project optioneering stage.
