NIRAS’ geotechnical team has in-depth experience of all aspects of geotechnical engineering, geology and geomorphology and in this capacity our team contributes to a large part of the more than 1000 projects undertaken by NIRAS annually.
We work with our clients, other members of project teams and external stakeholders to deliver geotechnical solutions which are:
- Innovative and practical
- Optimized and economical
- Environmentally sustainable
Fundamentally, our approach is based on geotechnical risk and value management. Uncertainty in ground conditions is a major source of cost and program risks for all civil and structural engineering projects.
The effective management of these risks requires the application of expert geotechnical engineering from project inception through planning stages to design and construction.
