Strength in depth

摘要

If there is one sector of the construction industry that can be relied on to keep finding innovative new solutions, it is piling and foundations. This specialist activity is constantly being pushed to the limit as engineers design ever taller buildings, clients choose to develop sites in the most cramped conditions, and the public demands greater environmental awareness and better use of poor ground. So, despite a downturn in construction across many geographical areas, piling and ground improvement remains fairly buoyant, as engineers require specialist solutions for both building and civil engineering projects.
