Soil and Rock Consultants Project Spotlight – Munro Lane

Another successful development project supported by Soil and Rock in collaboration with RCP and Maven .

This project involved a deep basement excavation hard against the site boundaries. Soil & Rock Consultants carried out the supporting geotechnical investigation, and the design of the anchors and sheet piling required to support the excavation during construction. Assessment of potential wall deflections was carried out to support pile and anchor designs. Geotechnical complexities included a mixed subgrade (fill and natural soil), avoidance of permanent under-fill drains, negotiating with a public body to install temporary anchors within their land and a requirement to carry out the installation within extremely tight lateral tolerances. The sheet piling and anchors were successfully installed and anchors removed following construction of the permanent structure.

Just another day at the office for the Team at Soil and Rock Consultants.

For this project, Soil and Rock are undertaking a geotechnical investigation to support the construction of a new dwelling.

The challenge? Excavating a steep embankment to create space for this exciting new build. But ensuring the safety and stability of such an undertaking required collaboration and an innovative approach.

The project strategically implemented a dynamic duo of soil nailing and retaining walls. Soil nailing provided reinforcement for the natural slopes, while the retaining wall provided sturdy support for the embankment excavation.

A few images of the recently completed Arches project in Mission Bay. A stunning example of the seamless integration of classic motif and modern boutique design.
Hiding beneath the exquisite exterior is a basement level which required excavation through loose saturated sands, necessitating detailed geotechnical and groundwater analysis and monitoring to ensure the ongoing integrity of neighbouring structures. A fantastic project from (below) the ground up!

As the response to the recent weather events across the North Island continues, Soil and Rock has been hard at work assisting our community with slip assessments and remedial works. While the devastating impact of these events will be with us for some time, it is comforting to see the collaboration across businesses as we pull together to respond to those in need.
