EARTHWORKS MODELLING

EARTHWORKS MODELLING

The company has secured a number of contracts involving the design of cost-effective remedial works prior to acquisition or as part of divestment of a number of sites to property developers. Several recent projects have also involved us assisting civil engineering and remediation contractors as part of the design and build submissions

EARTHWORKS MODELLING SERVICE

This work requires the modelling of earthworks taking into account the regrading of sites to achieve development plateaus that recognise drainage levels, subsurface structures and any contamination.

Geological information is incorporated into an earthworks model by use of Homebase which generates contoured surfaces that can be imported into AutoCAD 3D. This seamless interface of geological strata elevations is unique as it allows for sophisticated cut/fill modelling generating quantities of different soil materials.

The model allows for calculating an optimal cut/fill balance which minimises haul distances and material removed offsite.

Using the model we can estimate the quantity of surface/subsurface hard material that can be crushed to form 6F2/6F5 material that may be required for use as road/pavement areas capping, piling platforms or as structural fill.

The distribution of contamination in soil or groundwater can be represented in a three-dimensional form with the earthworks model used to assess soil inversion to eliminate pollutant linkages, removing the need to export material to landfill sites.

Coal Mining Risk Assessment

  The fundamental purposes of the coal mining risk assessment are to identify the risks of coal mining at the development site. The Coal Authority is a legal consultant for any planning application within a High-Risk Zone. The coal mining risk assessment includes an assessment of the Coal Authority Mining Report. Also, a visit to the offices of the Coal Authority to assess mining plans, a review of modern and historical published geological maps, and a review of technical reports/memoirs. For more details kindly visit- https://www.earthenvironmental.co.uk/coal-mining-risk-assessment/     

LANDFILL SERVICES

Landfill permitting and design requires a multidisciplinary approach involving geotechnical engineering, geology, construction quality, civil engineering, and hydrogeology and risk management. See More:- https://goo.gl/uAE8KB

Ground Investigation

  All  Ground investigations  follow strict and well-defined health and safety methods.  A ground investigation analyzes the fundamental conditions of the proposed site. A ground Investigation survey consists of a three-step method to acquire absolute knowledge of the soil parameters, rock, and groundwater. All Ground investigations administer using firm and well-defined health and safety procedures. The ground investigation includes any landfill/soil gas problems, soil/groundwater contamination, mining site assessment, hydrogeology, slope stability assessment, or testing geotechnical conditions of a new building or a land-form.  To know more about the Ground investigation procedure, kindly visit:  https://www.earthenvironmental.co.uk/ground-investigation-services/ https://www.earthenvironmental.co.uk/conducting-site-investigations/
