The Practice has long-established relationships providing technical support to designers, engineers, specifiers, manufacturers and suppliers on all elements relating to soils and their use.
Soil specifications
(topsoil, subsoil, specialist soils, lightweight rootzones, compost, urban tree soils)
Development of detailed specifications to ensure the correct soils are sourced, tested, approved and managed for each project.
Land drainage design and specification
Design of drainage systems for tree pits, planting areas, podium landscapes, high-use formal lawns and sports pitches, including materials (drainage media, pipework, catch pits), dimensions and installation methods.
Tree pit design (hard and soft landscapes)
There is no single tree pit design. Many variations exist depending on site conditions, local soils, tree size and species, and maintenance regime. We consider all these factors in order to provide detailed advice on tree pit dimensions, backfill materials, tree systems, drainage options, construction techniques and maintenance.
Green roofs, walls and podiums
Technical input into soil types, soil profiles, drainage and irrigation requirements, weight allowances, off-the-shelf products and maintenance considerations.
