Piletec can offer early advice to optimise the geotechnical solution and has good long-term relationships with independent experienced chartered geotechnical consultants to ensure that efficient designs are produced. Piletec and its design partner informs its analysis and scheme development with a thorough understanding of the problem and the ground conditions. The final geotechnical design is presented in clear calculation packs with accompanying CAD drawings as necessary. The optimised Piletec design will be ‘buildable’ and safe to construct in an efficient manner, as Piletec and their design partner work closely together from an early stage in developing the final scheme.
