CASE STUDY 3

CLIENT SPECIFICATION:
To construct a new siding alongside, and level with, an existing track.

PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED:
After our pre-tender site inspection, we determined that approximately 300cu
metres of surplus material would need to be removed from site.

There was the likelihood that residual soil contamination was present.
To remove this would increase the project cost by up to £100,000.

SOLUTION:
A.L.A. proposed to overcome the problem with some lateral thinking. We decided
to solve the issues of the environmental implications by not disturbing the existing
formation. Instead, our proposal was to raise the track level by approximately
300mm which would avoid the increase in project costs.

This proposal was accepted by the client.
