Construction Supervision

A Detailed Approach

Our clients are our number one priority, and we’ll go the extra mile to make sure they’re completely satisfied with our work. We have a detailed approach when it comes to site supervision and we only sign off on a structure when we are completely satisfied with the work done on site. All site inspections are done prior to the pouring of concrete and to the installation of cladding for timber -and steel structures.

Soil

Getting Our Hands Dirty

We offer Geotechnical Surveys and reports for residential and smaller commercial projects. The reports include: site geology, soil profiles, ground water conditions, excavation conditions, foundation conditions & solutions, estimated safe bearing capacity, predicted settlement as well as potential material utilization. We include the soil classification for NHBRC enrollments.

Masonry

Expert Guidance

Masonry construction is an economical solution for most residential structures. We design numerous load bearing masonry structures, from internal and external walls to columns and retaining walls.

​

Masonry also forms an integral part of commercial concrete frame structures as non-load bearing infill panels.

Reinforced Concrete

Comprehensive Approach

We have an expert reinforced concrete design team that can solve any design challenge. They have an in-depth understanding of all relevant SANS design codes and their applications.

Our team can, with confidence, take on any concrete structure. They have been part of many projects where they design individual and combined elements. For example: strip foundations, columns and column bases, raft foundations, piles and pile caps, suspended slabs and beams, lift shafts, shear walls, walls, bridges and water retaining structures.
