Alshyoukhy Contracting & Concrete Solutions Design needs to consider the properties of the ground (soil/rock) and the impact infrastructure will have on the surface and sub-surface. Having carried out specialist Civil & Geotechnical Engineering, projects, we are experienced specialists in providing geotechnical engineering design services for infrastructure projects, property developments, and dams/tunnels construction.
We use a range of analytical techniques to identify the specific geotechnical design requirements and specifications needed for construction activities. Advanced numerical techniques such as finite element analysis and boundary element analysis are followed up by methods that check and verify our analyses to provide accurate and reliable data to our clients. Where needed, we develop new methods or modify existing analytical methods to improve the quality of the solutions we develop for our clients.
Some of the areas we specialize in include:
Geotechnical Site Investigation
Planning and implementing in major projects concerning Foundations, Tunnels, Roads & Railways, Underground Works & Dams, etc.
Foundation Engineering
Analysis and Design of Specific & Complicated Foundation Systems.
Deep Earth Retention Systems & Slope Stability Analysis & Stabilisation
Deep Anchored Piled Retaining Walls & Systems (Analysis, Design, Detailing).
Design, Construction, and Supervision of Soil and Rock slopes and excavations. Slope stability analyses problems and Earth Retaining structures. Slope Stabilization techniques.
