Structural Soils reposted this
A ground investigation is underway in the rear courtyard at Canada House. As part of the work funded by the The National Lottery Heritage Fund Development Grant, Structural Soils are undertaking a ground investigation in the rear courtyard behind Canada House. Structural Soils are specialists in geoenvironmental ground investigation and are working with Arup, our engineers on the project. They are digging 3 trial pits and drilling 2 boreholes to a depth of 30m! This will all be analysed back in the lab. Their job is to ensure that the Harmony Works’ design team know as much as possible about what lies beneath the tarmac courtyard to inform the foundations for the new staircase, lifts, and new rehearsal space.
