Client's Challenge

Seddon Construction required temporary working platforms on three sites, one for a new industrial unit in Haydock and two for new care homes in Coventry and Cheshire. Design proposals proved to be expensive, so they approached Tensar to see if they could be ‘value engineered’.

Tensar Solution

All three working platforms comprised granular fill, mechanically stabilised with TriAx geogrids. The efficient load-spread designs, validated by performance testing, shortened construction times and reduced materialsuse, compared with conventional designs. Tensar’s solution also significantly reduced the amount of contaminated material that had to be excavated, and the volume of imported fill required on the Haydock project conventional working platforms.
