In late 2017 we had the pleasure of working with a new client on the assessment of the likely settlement beneath the roads, drives and driveways at a proposed housing development site in Yorkshire.  The ground comprised soft alluvial clays and peats, and some land-raising was required.  Movements were estimated based on available information supported by published data and correlations.  Due to the magnitude of movements, a range of treatment options were suggested and the design of the development is presently being advanced.

If you think we could assist you with similar issues you may be having on a site then please contact Dr Andy Goodwin on 01246 807808.
