Richard Kennedy will be speaking about the range of solutions and service available from DSI with particular focus on slope stabilisation systems including case histories that highlight the benefit of the combined service approach that DSI can offer.
12:05 – Refreshment Break & networking
12:20 – Maccaferri
130 years ago Maccaferri invented Gabions and dramatically changed civil engineering’s landscape. We are still changing it today. We work everyday to find better solutions for our clients. We make innovation happen around the world and we offer ongoing support to establish relations built on solid trust.
In the UK Maccaferri are able to offer a wide range of engineering solutions on a supply or supply and installation basis.
12:45 – Envirosoil
Envirosoil (Remediation) Ltd specialises in Soil Stabilisation. We offer this technique as substitutes for the importation of primary or secondary aggregates and the export of waste to tip. This results in a saving at least equal to the disposal cost of the waste material. Other spin offs include a 70% reduction in the consumption of diesel in the execution of these activities, a 95% decrease in HGV movements onto and off site, and the elimination of waste to tip equal to the quantity of primary and secondary aggregate required on site.
13:10 – Stress UK
STRESS in association with GeoInnovations delivers the only designed, guaranteed, patented ground permeation technology in the world.
The ReFORCE system is used for :
- Large diameter high capacity piles beneath existing footings and slabs through 40mm diameter holes.
- High capacity ground anchors through existing retaining walls.
- Ground Consolidation for enabling works in basement construction and underpinning to control water and potential settlement.
- Engineered Ground Stabilisation
