CIVIL ENGINEERING

HIGHWAY DESIGN

Our Civil Engineering team carry out all types of highway design including small residential developments to major road design for large commercial and residential developments.

We work closely with developers and the Highway Authorities to undertake S38 and S278 adoptions using 3D modelling to create highway alignments, long sections and setting information.

DRAINAGE

Our drainage team undertake both large and small scale below ground drainage design projects for all types of schemes, both residential and commercial including SuDS elements, providing drainage strategy reports for support of planning applications through to detailed design. We offer a service that includes all stages of design development through to construction using Microdrainage software.

Designs are carried out in accordance local government guidance including the National Planning Policy Framework Directive, the London Plan and LLFA (Local Lead Flood Authority) requirements.

Our team are experienced in offering drainage systems to service providers for adoption under S104 and can provide a service for adoption of existing drainage under a S102. We can carry out Pre-planning enquiries, S185 diversions, S98 sewer acquisition and S106 connection agreements. We co-ordinate our designs with any highway alignment to ensure a complete service can be offered to our clients.

GROUND MODELLING

Our Team has over 30 years of experience in 3-Dimensional digital ground modelling using PDS. The services offered include Highway design, Cut and Fill calculations from 3D Terrain models for all aspects of earthworks. Detailed site modelling for proposed developments including cut and fill calculations to determine excess material.

Along side our ground modelling we can provide Isopachtye contour drawings to show areas of Cut and Fill and detailed surface modelling with falls to show the layout of a site for surface water design.

PLANNING SUPPORT

A key role we play is providing elements of planning support from pre-planning drainage strategies in support of a planning application, to advice on what SuDS elements would be suitable for a development based on geology and hydro-geology through to discharge of planning conditions in respect of Surface Water disposal. Pollution control is vital when looking at a drainage scheme and is reviewed at an early stage of design development.
