A foundation underpinning system was required to provide additional support to reduce and control the culvert deformation. This paper presents the process and outcome of the geotechnical analysis of culvert deformation due to the surrounding ground movement without and with jet grout columns. The paper also...
Are you looking to hire a geotechnical contracting engineer for your next construction project but not sure where to start? While there are a number of risks associated with project performance, poor soils or ground conditions are one of the most common sources of project...

Jet grouting is one of the most popular techniques for strengthening soils. The principle relies on the use of a liquid jet with high kinetic energy to deconstruct the soil matrix and mix it in place with a binder brought by the jetted liquid itself...
Inpex Browse, Ltd (Inpex) and its partner Total are developing the Ichthys gas field to pipe that gas to onshore facilities at Bladin Point on south side of East Arm in Darwin Harbour. The proposed LNG plant consist of gas receiving facilities, 2 x 4.2Mtpa...
Menard Bachy has carried out over the last 15 years a large number of groundwater containment structures utilising a wide range of geotechnical techniques. One particular technique is the Soil Bentonite (SSB)) wall which is one of the most efficient, cost-effective and environmentally friendly solutions...
Road Duplication/Extension projects allow for an increase in traffic capacity for an existing road once it reaches its design limits. As a consequence, several bridge structures have to be widened or duplicated.The duplication of an existing RE structure usually comprises of the following steps. (Figure...
The existing expressway exclusively facilitates a reversible one-way traffic movement stretching from Darlington to Noarlunga. The $407.5 million southern expressway duplication project includes the design and construction of 18.5kms of roadway alongside the existing expressway carriageway to convert the one-way road into a multi-lane, two-way...
The sustainability concept has been increasingly accepted to be a key aspect of engineering design and construction, most noticeably in government-supported projects. Since geotechnical engineering is one of the key parts of construction, geotechnical engineers have opportunities with the power to deliver project outcomes that...
