Areas of focus and expertise
Geotechnical Engineering
– Geotechnical investigations, engineering, procurement, and construction.
– Design and construction of containment facilities and barrier systems; basal and side slope barrier systems, tailings ponds and impoundments, effluent and leachate ponds, final cover, site closure, remediation, reclamation and landform systems, for various applications.
– Numerical and analytical evaluations of slope stability, seepage, steady state and transient flows, compression, consolidation, immediate and time-dependent settlements, stress-strain interactions, interface and internal shear strength behaviour of soils and other materials – aggregates, tailings, waste, and more.
– Trenching, excavations, drainage, and earthworks design for above-ground and underground infrastructure and construction.
– Design and construction of reinforcement and stabilization systems for weak soils and ground conditions, loose rocks, basal and side slopes, retaining walls, foundations, mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls, embankments, dams, and more.
Geosynthetics Engineering and Materials
– Site-specific designs, construction and rehabilitation, with geosynthetics.
– Performance-based evaluation and specification of materials (geomembranes and other geosynthetics, soils, aggregates, and more) relative to site-specific conditions and project needs.
– Design and construction of drainage, containment, reinforcement, stabilization, dewatering, filtration, geohazards/rock-fall mitigation and erosion control systems.
Environmental Management and Sustainability Solutions
– Phased environmental assessments (Phases I,II,III); development of corrective action plans (CAPs) for sites.
– Waste management master planning and options appraisal; clean-up, remediation, and reclamation of contaminated lands and brown field sites for new developments and other future end uses.
– Environmental impact assessments, circular economy solutions, development of environmental management systems, and environment and sustainability plans, policies and procedures.
Mechanical and Facilities Engineering
– Facilities design, construction, expansion, assessments, monitoring, appraisal, and rehabilitation (GMP – manufacturing, healthcare, pharmaceutical, commercial, and more)
– Air pollution control, indoor air quality management, carbon footprint and CO2 emissions reduction strategies.
– Reliability engineering plans and program creation, implementation, assessment and management.
