CASE STUDIES
Construction Site Surveillance, Hinkley Point C Power Station
Our engineers have conducted construction surveillance on one of the largest infrastructure projects in Europe, the new £26B Hinkley Point C Power Station. Acting as the Subject Matter Expert (civil & structural engineering discipline) on behalf of the developer EDF, our responsibilities included design briefings to constructor prior to build for every structure (to provide clarity on the design, operational and nuclear safety requirements), on-site checks/inspections to ensure compliance with the design/specification, management of NCRs and FCRs, structural defect diagnosis, progress reporting, approvals and sign off. The wide range of infrastructure included deep tunnels/service galleries (approx. 8 miles in length), deep excavations (15 storeys in height) to accommodate large pumping station structures, heavy civil foundations for the nuclear island, conventional and other service buildings, ancillary structures, office buildings and large sea wall defences along the severn estuary/site boundary.
Infrastructure & Facilities Management, Swansea Marina
Structural Surveys UK provided site inspection/survey and consultancy services in relation to sea defence failures at Swansea Marina in South Wales on behalf of the Welsh Government and Vinci Facilities. Our engineers carried out the initial site walkdown to assess the degree of damage to the sea defences, conducted an initial technical review of the available design and construction deliverables and recommended a number of temporary strengthening solutions to negate further deterioration until a more permanent solution was introduced. Structural Surveys UK also produced the design/specification, conducted tender procurement and project managed the construction phase to ensure the design intent was met by the contractor.
