Dam Engineering
Our professional engineers, geologists, hydrogeologists and technologists are highly experienced in the design, inspection, assessment and surveillance monitoring of dams. Our expertise includes earthfill and concrete dams as well as other water retaining structures such as spillways and locks.
We employ the latest guidelines and best practices to ensure these structures are designed, constructed, operated and maintained safely. Backed by extensive experience with projects of every size for a range of clients, we use a multidisciplinary approach to deliver the following services:
- geotechnical investigations and site characterization
- slope stability analysis
- settlement analysis and monitoring
- groundwater modeling and seepage analysis
- instrumentation and surveillance and monitoring review
- seismic hazard evaluations and earthquake engineering
- seismic liquefaction assessment
- dam safety review (DSR) and failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA)
- geomechanics and advanced numerical modelling (2D and 3D)
- dewatering and depressurization analysis
