Terrain Geotechnical Consultants Ltd. are consulting engineers based in the UK specialising in piling, deep foundations and geostructural engineering. With with over 50 years of combined experience of geostructural design projects throughout the UK and internationally our success has been been built upon a high quality of service to our clients. Some recent examples of our work are given below:Beauly to Denny 400 kV OHL Project - Development of a generic approach to micropile design for 145 transmission line tower foundations fast tracking the design process within a rapidly developing environment featuring a continual process of client led design changes. Introduction of a novel approach to micropile reinforcement combining flexural resistance and axial stiffness in tension and compression, essential for tower foundations. Windmill Shopping Centre, Widnes - Design optimisation for contiguous bored pile walls for basement retention adopting the Observational Method producing signficant client savings, full details on website.Wisbech Flood Alleviation Scheme - Alternative design to conforming scheme for piled flood walls saving on environmental polution risk to adjacent river and significant cost savings. Full details on website.Blackfriars Station Project, London - Various solutions for temporary and permanent structures including a tower crane base and bridge abutment through obstructed Thames ballast using high capacity micropiles. All piles constructed and load tested in restricted access.Hilton Hotel, Manchester - For the tallest building in the North of England, design of 12 metre retained contiguous bored pile walls.Kingdom Kampala Project, Kampala, Uganda - Geotechnical interpretative reporting and design of reinforced concrete raft foundation for this prestiguous multi-purpose development in Uganda.

Grimsby, United Kingdom

Responsible for the day to day management of a team of engineers designing all types of piles and secant/contiguous bored pile walls for Expanded Piling who are a UK based piling contractor installing all types of pile foundations. Major contracts completed as follows:Bishopsgate - London, Multi-storey development on large diameter rotary bored piles with undereams, designed piles and assisted with development of remote sensing equipment for checking of clay remould and laser guided kelly bar system eliminating need for man decent.No. 9 Dock - Devonport Dockyard, Plymouth, High capacity steel tube piles for dock wall stabilisation for seismic design condition. Redesign of rock sockets from conforming scheme eliminating undereams, client saving £1m.GCHQ - Cheltenham, Design of contiguous bored pile walls and bearing piles for deep basement construction to new headquarters.NEMSFAC - Devonport Dockyard, Plymouth, For a facilities building design of 20 metre deep sheet pile cofferdam and large diameter rotary bored piles.

Plymouth, United Kingdom

Devonport Management manage the dock facilities at the UK's naval base in Plymouth, Devon. In the 1990's they had to implement a series of safety improvements to the dockyard for docking nuclear submarines. I was responsible for developing and managing the design and construction of a design solution to stabilise a 17 metre high quay wall at No. 10 Dock, Devonport adopting high capacity (300 t) rock anchors. The role required extensive liason with a variety of different regulatory authorities and interested parties.
