Construction and rebuilding

ERMAAN SERVICES BUILDING AND INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT

We provide the information and expertise to generate successful building and infrastructure development projects. Contributing to the feasibility, design, engineering, construction, maintenance and decommissioning stages, we help strengthen, improve and validate decision-making, delivering long-term assurance.

The design, construction and maintenance of buildings rely on competent site investigation, quality data collection and accurate interpretation and advice. These essential processes improve planning and minimize risk. We know that robust understanding plays a critical role in building, maintenance and refurbishment programs and support all stages of your project, from feasibility, through construction support, to the long-term monitoring of condition and integrity.

ROADS AND HIGHWAYS

The design, construction, management and maintenance of roads and associated civil infrastructure require specialist information and advice. Our technology and expertise can mitigate and manage risks, protecting people, the environment and commercial investment. From initial feasibility studies to long-term asset management, we work with government agencies, consulting engineers, construction and private development companies to extend, improve and preserve the world’s highways.

COASTAL PROTECTION AND FLOOD CONTROL

With rising sea levels threatening the viability of homes in coastal regions and ERMAAN SERVICES, effective solutions for development and land reclamation are crucial. Our insight includes rigorous investigation, data acquisition, accurate processing and interpretation. With an inherent knowledge of designing for the future our global geoconsultancy team provides development advice and risk management.

We support the construction and development of ports and harbours, overwater bridges, subsea tunnels, highways, coastal facilities, land reclamation and sea defences. We operate responsibly in sensitive areas and efficiently in hostile and technically challenging environments. We can provide you with crucial information for coastal zone management (with a focus on coastal erosion and potential loss of habitat); risk prevention advice when dealing with pollution and other natural events; and planning and management support for any development activity in the coastal zone.

 

TUNNELLING AND UNDERGROUND SPACE

We provide multi-disciplinary expertise in Geo-data acquisition, ground risk management and asset monitoring for tunnel and underground space projects. Our team works closely with our clients to achieve robust risk management and more efficient outcomes across the tunnel life cycle.

We have a long and successful track record in characterising, interpreting and managing ground risk. By combining this knowledge with our tunnel consulting expertise, we have expanded our highly focused, professional team to meet the growing global demand for technical support in the tunnel sector.

Our capability extends beyond data acquisition to analytics and advice, backed up by our extensive experience of design and site supervision on a broad range of technically challenging projects.

We always recommend that our specialists get involved in projects at an early stage. This enables them to create advanced, data-rich models of ground properties and geo-risks, to guide and reinforce confidence in tunnel design, ground engineering and buildability.

Our ERMAAN SERVICES Insight platform provides project teams with easy access to actionable data for efficient decision-making. It integrates geotechnical, geological and structural insights – in most cases delivered in real-time – to accelerate construction and de-risk the subsurface.

Post-construction, our ERMAAN SERVICES-data continue to deliver value by underpinning building information modelling (BIM) with a deep level of ground intelligence, together with asset management data from ongoing structural assessment and condition monitoring activities.
