CIVIL DESIGN SERVICES

TEMPORARY WORKS DESIGN

Our civil engineering team provide a variety of temporary works designs to our client base. Our experienced team are accustomed to producing the simplest to the most complex of temporary work designs we are also able to check and comment on designs produced by subcontractors and external consultants. We use the latest software underpinned by a great depth of experience garnered on complex projects such as the 2012 Olympics and Crossrail.

UNDER ROAD CROSSINGS

Source work on the most complex of Under Road Crossing. We have recently completed a twin 132kV crossing design under the M25. Source are used to working with multiple stakeholders to present the most technically robust cost effective design. We are conversant with all relevant codes and settlement calculation requirements to ensure a successful outcome.

RETAINING WALLS DESIGN

Using a range of materials including reinforced concrete, steel, masonry and timber, Source can design a variety of retaining walls that are fully suitable for the Client’s requirements. We will liaise with our Client to select a design that is ecologically and economically favourable, aesthetically suitable for the area and ultimately fit for purpose. All retaining wall designs will include material specifications, calculations, risk assessments to all current codes and standards.

TUNNEL HEADINGS DESIGN

Source will design tunnel headings with timber and steel components, using Eurocodes as required by the Client. By analysing ground information and any possible surcharging from buildings, vehicles, plant etc., we will specify all component sizes and produce fully detailed drawings with installation stages included. Taking into account any possible ground loading, water and settlement issues, we provide risk assessments and remediation methodologies.

GROUND SLAB DESIGN

By interpreting geotechnical data and calculating proposed loads, our concrete foundation design and analysis meets Eurocode 2 and other relevant standards. Designs typically include fully dimensioned drawings, calculations and reinforcement bar schedules to provide the all details required to construct the foundation correctly and efficiently. Source will also analyse existing foundations to current or historical standards to attain its current and potential capacity.
