Engineering consultancy services

Independent advice and delivery support across the infrastructure lifecycle—from early feasibility and risk definition to assurance, monitoring and professional development.

Our capabilities

Specialist support, structured around the client’s decision.

Services can be delivered as standalone packages or combined into a coordinated scope with defined outputs, interfaces and review points.

Dam Engineering, Safety Inspection & Asset Assurance

We support dam owners, operators, designers and project teams in understanding the condition, performance and safety of embankment dams, hydraulic structures and associated assets. Our approach combines inspection, engineering analysis, risk awareness and practical recommendations.

  • Dam safety inspections, walkover surveys and condition assessments
  • Review of embankments, spillways, outlets, valves, drainage systems and ancillary structures
  • Seepage, pore-water pressure, deformation and instrumentation-data interpretation
  • Dam surveillance, monitoring and inspection planning
  • Hydrologic and hydraulic review of spillway and outlet performance
  • Failure-mode identification, risk screening and prioritisation of remedial actions
  • Independent technical review of investigation, design and rehabilitation proposals
  • Support for maintenance, emergency preparedness and asset-management planning

Coastal & Marine Engineering

Our coastal work focuses on the interaction between shoreline processes, infrastructure, ground conditions, erosion, flooding and the long-term performance of protection measures.

  • Coastal erosion and shoreline-risk review
  • Concept development for seawalls, revetments, breakwaters and protection works
  • Nature-based and hybrid coastal interventions
  • Ground and foundation considerations for coastal assets
  • Constructability, materials and maintenance review
  • Climate-change adaptation and resilience planning
  • Independent review of coastal proposals and studies

Structural Health Monitoring & Diagnostics

Monitoring should answer a defined engineering question. We help clients identify what to measure, why it matters and how data should influence asset decisions.

  • Monitoring objectives and instrumentation strategy
  • Sensor selection, location and data requirements
  • Baseline condition and inspection integration
  • Data interpretation and threshold development
  • Performance trends, deterioration indicators and anomalies
  • Decision protocols for inspection, maintenance and intervention
  • Independent review of monitoring proposals and outputs
