  • 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐁𝟐 𝐒𝐥𝐚𝐛 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞   Today marks a significant step forward on the project with HS2. Due to the complex arrangement of shafts and structural constraints, the slab was delivered in multiple pours. With the final section now complete, the entire slab has been fully constructed.   This was a major reinforced concrete operation, involving: - Rebar installation up to 40mm diameter - Raft slab thicknesses of up to 2 metres in depth Alongside this milestone, progress continues across several key RC elements, including: - Retaining walls - Lift and stair cores - Shaft roof structures - Below-shaft tunnel works With multiple work fronts operating simultaneously - and in close proximity to a live rail line - this remains a highly complex and coordinated site. Ongoing operations are supported by heavy plant, logistics teams, and two NRC tower cranes carrying out continuous lifting activities.   👏 A huge credit to all teams involved for their collaboration, planning, and commitment to delivering this project safely and efficiently.   #Construction #Engineering #Infrastructure #Teamwork #Milestone #Concrete #SafetyFirst #ProjectDelivery #transport

The scope to date has included: ✅ Ground Investigation – 2 No. boreholes to inform subsurface conditions and de-risk delivery ✅ Topographical, utility and delap surveys (including rail access coordination) ✅ F001–F003 UTX design development ✅ Planning for a 120m HDD crossing under rail infrastructure for a 180mm duct installation   Projects like this highlight the importance of robust upfront investigation, coordinated survey work, and detailed design development to ensure safe, efficient and buildable trenchless solutions in constrained rail environments. A great example of multidisciplinary collaboration to reduce risk before construction begins.   #HDD #HorizontalDirectionalDrilling #TrenchlessTechnology #RailInfrastructure #CivilEngineering #UtilityInfrastructure #GroundInvestigation #Engineering #Infrastructure #Surveying #JohnstonTrenchlessSolutions

  • 🏆 Recognising Best Practice through our LIFE culture 🏆   A huge well done to this week’s Best Practice Award winners for continuing to bring our LIFE values to life across our projects.   Our culture is only as strong as the people behind it, and it’s great to see that standard being set so consistently across our teams. 👏   #BestPractice #LIFECulture #Construction #Teamwork #SafeWorking #Engineering

  • 🚧 Behind every successful project is strong logistics 🚧   In civil engineering, progress doesn’t just happen on site - it starts long before, with careful planning and coordination to get the right equipment where it needs to be.   Ensuring equipment arrive safely and on time is critical to keeping projects moving, minimising delays, and maintaining high standards of safety.   Another reminder of the vital role logistics plays in everything we deliver. 👏   #Construction #CivilEngineering #Logistics #Infrastructure #ProjectDelivery

  • Proud to mark the successful completion of our 𝙊𝙡𝙙 𝙊𝙖𝙠 𝘾𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙤𝙣 𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 project - another major infrastructure milestone. 👏 Our team delivered a complex tunnelling and shaft construction package involving deep excavation works, heavy temporary works, pipe installation, and precision engineering in a highly constrained environment. From mobilisation through to breakthrough and final completion, this project showcased: - Innovative engineering and construction method - Exceptional effort from every person on site - Strong collaboration See a few photos - from launch shaft construction and pipe jacking operations to final installations and the people who made it happen. Projects like this are only possible because of the dedication, expertise, and resilience of the workforce behind them. A huge thank you to everyone involved - site teams, engineers, planners, operators, suppliers, and partners - for delivering an outstanding result. #Infrastructure #Construction #CivilEngineering #Tunnelling #Engineering #ProjectDelivery #Teamwork #Utilities #PipeJacking #ShaftConstruction #HealthAndSafety #ProjectCompletion
