By adding moisture by hand to aid compaction we optimise soil density, stability, and ultimately, project performance. From road construction to building foundations, the proper compaction of soil is essential for long-term structural integrity. #GeotechnicalEngineering #Compaction #MoistureControl #Infrastructure #Construction #Engineering

WJH Engineering recently completed due diligence and feasibility studies for over 1,500 residential units across New Jersey in Q2 2024. This process is critical for identifying potential risks and guiding developers in making informed financial decisions before investing in large-scale projects. The team evaluates zoning requirements, environmental constraints, and flood risks, ensuring that each development complies with regulations from local and federal agencies like NJDEP and FEMA. By thoroughly assessing these factors, WJH Engineering helps avoid delays and roadblocks, ensuring smoother project execution. For developers looking to embark on new projects, WJH Engineering's due diligence services are essential to mitigate risks and streamline the development process.

In stormwater engineering, sometimes you have no choice but to keep pumping. Specifically, when you need to overcome negative hydraulic grade (in lay speak: the outlet water level is higher than the inlet water level :)).   But that doesn’t have to mean knocking everything down and starting again. If the existing asset is functional, but there are (in this case, demonstrably ample) opportunities for improvement, then look to exploit those opportunities without breaking the bank.   In this design / build contract, I worked with the client to produce a Specimen Design that clearly conveys the desired outcomes whilst leaving the detail of how those are realised to the Tenderers. This hands the opportunity to find cost savings to the experts in actually getting things built. It also minimised design costs, and accelerated the programme. But I needed to be sure that everyone involved knew their role, responsibilities, and risks, by careful preparation of drawings and documents.   I’m proud to have delivered such a set of documents for the upgrade of this stormwater pump station. Single handed. For a Very. Reasonable. Fee.   I’m even prouder now, knowing that the construction was completed without a hitch. Oh, and well within budget, with enough left over to re-clad the shed (thankfully!), and add some nice-to-have railings.   Got a similar project? Keen to realise similar value? Get in touch.   #ValueEngineering #SweatingTheAsset.

At PRI Engineering, we pride ourselves on tackling geotechnical challenges with innovation and expertise. In case you missed it, we published a case study on one of our recently completed projects: Blue Jay Lane Residential Development. This project was quite a challenge and required an innovative approaches! Here are some key highlights from the case study: 🏗️ Complex Geotechnical Conditions: Faced with unique soil and environmental conditions, our team developed tailored solutions to ensure stability and and long-term durability. 🌱 Environmental Considerations: Learn how we balanced engineering demands with ecological sensitivity, preserving the natural beauty of the site. 🔍 Detailed Analysis and Planning: Our thorough site investigations and planning led to effective strategies that met both time and budget constraints. This case study is a testament to our commitment to #excellence and our ability to navigate complex #engineering landscapes. Whether you’re a professional in the field or simply interested in the world of #geotechnicalengineering, this case study provides valuable insights into our approach and methodologies. 👉 Head over to our blog to dive into the full case study and see how our team turns challenges into successes: https://buff.ly/3HCVEtK #PRIEngineering #GeotechnicalEngineering #CaseStudy #InnovationInEngineering #BlueJayLaneProject

Manhole construction in action! Sewer manholes are crucial for maintaining our complex underground networks, allowing for inspection, cleaning, and repairs of sewer systems. Using forms, skilled workers carefully shape these structures. Proper technique and the right tools ensure longevity and functionality. These structures must withstand immense pressures, corrosive environments, and decades of use. Their design and construction are testaments to civil engineering ingenuity.
