Civil Engineering

What it is

Site, marine and linear infrastructure: earthworks, drainage, foundations and the groundwork everything else stands on.

Civil work is the part nobody sees and everything depends on. Get the earthworks, drainage and foundations right and the structure above has a chance; get them wrong and no amount of clever design above ground will save it.

The scope runs from site and linear infrastructure to marine works and deep foundations — from secant-piled basements, transfer slabs and composite floors to 50-metre marine piles, where the ground conditions leave no room for optimism.
