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.

Basement Impact Assessment

  Basement impact is a condition when groundwater starts moving through the soil. It starts affecting land and property conditions. A Basement impact assessment evaluates risks of slope stability problems. It includes a phase 1 desk study to confirm the site's history, explores hydro-geological conditions and surface flood risk. The basement impact assessment takes care of the geological and hydro-geological conditions of the area and other potential risks such as drainage, flooding, groundwater quality. Basement assessment can add valuable space to your property or development. But ensure that the proposed basement development is appropriate. Earth Environmental & Geotechnical's team prepare a BIA report to support your planning application. For more details, kindly visit:  https://www.earthenvironmental.co.uk/basement-impact-assessment/

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.
