Our qualified geologists and engineers provide the following services When modelling in Wallap, defining right soil parameters and correct construction stages. WALLAP is suitable for the analysis of both temporary works, such as sheet pile walls, and permanent works such as reinforced concrete diaphragm walls and contiguous bored pile walls.
We also carry out observation of construction and provide geotechnical certification for works we have investigated, designed and observed during construction. WALLAP is a powerful and user-friendly software for analysing the stability of cantilevered and propped retaining walls.
Where necessary our services can extend to design of slope stabilising measures such as in-ground retaining, soil nailing and sub-surface drainage. Where slope instability has occurred or is expected to occur that affects an existing or proposed structure, we will use the results of our analysis to formulate geotechnical design recommendations to assist with mitigation of the risk, and repair of any damage.
The results of slope stability analyses can be used to provide design recommendations to help ensure that an existing or proposed development is not subject to risk of damage due to slope movement. These include assessing the risk of slope movement for proposed or existing building platforms and carrying out forensic analysis on slopes that have already experienced either recent or historic instability.Ĭommon forms of slope instability are often described as landslides, land slips, slumps and debris flows. We carry out analysis of slope stability for various purposes.
