Soletanche Bachy’s civil engineering expertise comprises an integrated offer encompassing foundations and above-ground structures. For us, you can’t have one without the other.
The field of application of civil engineering is very wide, involving major work on a range of structures including buildings, maritime structures, transport infrastructure, and so on.
In the process of constructing a car park, a storm basin, a quayside, or a dry dock, one has to consider several factors: the nature of the ground, the load-bearing specifications, the propensity for the soil to move and its level of plastification.
Soletanche Bachy can accompany you throughout your project. Our extensive expertise means we can provide an optimised offer with the right foundations for the civil engineering of your project. We have developed in-house software that draws on all our experience for precision results.
Earthworks usually consist of moving large quantities of material (soil, rocks, etc.) to level the ground in preparation for the installation of utilities (water, electricity, etc.), construction of a structure or of foundations. Earthworks involve excavation, backfilling and levelling of the ground to prepare a surface suitable for these operations.
But at Soletanche Bachy, the reality of earthworks is quite different, with the techniques used varying depending on the application.
Jet grouting is a fairly common technique, but one in which Soletanche Bachy has unique expertise.
