Movements and partial collapse of a 130 year old brick retaining wall at Lansdowne Crescent in Worcester had led to partial closure of the road. Previous attempts to prop the wall had failed and in places the wall appeared to be moving away from the stationary buttresses. Conservation requirements added significantly to the challenge of the task of stabilisation.

St Ann's, Nottingham

In order to provide development space for three new blocks of flats and gardens, Main Contractor Gleeson Building had first to overcome a problem due to the 9 metre difference in site levels.

North Hill Road, Aberystwyth

Design and installed permanent soil nails to stabilise an existing distressed masonry wall. The existing wall was reduced in height and the ground behind soil nailed, in small vertical lifts. Upon completion of the nailing the wall was rebuilt.

Duloch Grange, Dunfermline

Duloch Grange is currently being built by Bryant Homes Scotland, and the company is going to great lengths to ensure that the site harmonises with the local environment, by taking into account mature trees, wildlife, and other existing natural elements.

Wises Lane, Sittingbourne

A central landscaped storm water attenuation basin and pond feature was required for the new Bloor Homes housing development in Sittingbourne, Kent.

Great Park Phase II, Birmingham

Increased development space has been created for housing and commercial units by the use of Textomur reinforced soil. An economic retaining solution was needed for the site boundary which was more than 300m long and turned through 90° in three places. The wall also had to retain more than 9m of ground at various points along its length.

Saxon Park, Warrington

Raised site levels, following environmental remediation of the site, presented housebuilders Wimpey Homes and Miller Homes with a problem. They had to retain a slope 375 metres long and nearly 4 metres high in a small space between a live railway line and new residential homes.
