Civil Engineering Services
Following the breakdown of planning disciplines in the second half of the 20th century the integrated planning model with streamlinedinterfaces made it possible to develop a building project from a single source.Structural Engineering Services
The division Transport & Infrastructure has developed expertise in transport infrastructure projects worldwide. Our core competence in tunnel engineering uses the latest technologies in cut-and-cover and bored tunnels methods. All planning activities related to tunnel engineering, including all kind of pre-studies, will be carried out by our professional engineers. By making use of our core competences, you will minimize the coordination expenditure.
Water and Environment
Geotechnical Engineering
This subject is devoted to the transmission of forces from buildings to the subsoil, including the equilibrium of forces between buildings embedded in the soil and their environment; it also deals specifically with the characteristics of soil as a construction material. Our geotechnical department has substantial experience in managing complex projects both in Germany and abroad. The range of our projects spans individual dwellings, tunnels, dams and embankments, roads and railways, bridges and retaining walls, channels, pipelines and airports. Our specialist geotechnical department emerged from the previous `Institute for soil and foundation engineering` created in 1968, and has thus been in existence for the last 45 years.Environmental Planning
We pursue a holistic and future-oriented approach for the protection, care, development and – where necessary - remediation of the environment, with particular reference to ecology and landscape. We assist in all planning phases and support through all the instances of planning permission. We provide a broad spectrum of design and analysis services in connection with the building of cities, roads, airports, pipelines and diverse plants, in the mining industry and in water and waste management. The objective treatment of the often complex challenges implies the systematic use of modern information systems, in particular GIS and CAD technologies.Landfills and Hazardous Waste Services
Our interdisciplinary teams of engineers, geologists, geo-ecologists and biologists provide a comprehensive service from concept initiation to design of the rehabilitation works of disposal sites and abandoned tips. In addition, we evaluate environmental risks in the context of environmental due diligence checks and compile an overview of the necessary remedial measures and associated costs.As a certified investigator pursuant to ยง 18 of the German federal soil protection law we can assure competent technical investigations of refuse dumps, including an impact assessment in accordance with the German directive BBodSchV.For these landfill projects we can provide the entire scope of services from site identification and evaluation to a comprehensive design and the subsequent holistically oriented aftercare programme.
