Brunel Civil Engineering Projects
Kings Crescent
Grace Construction & Management awarded Brunel Civil Engineering to undertake the civil engineering works to construct the underground car park and foundation for a new residential apartment development.
The first task was to remove a redundant railway tunnel that passed through the site which supports the A6 that passes adjacent. Before the tunnel could be removed, the existing structure required support at the boundaries.This was undertaken by piling between the existing steel support beams. Once piling was completed, a pile cap was installed 1.5m below ground level to support the rail tunnel beams. When cured, the existing beams were cut and supported on the below ground pile cap.
220 piles were installed on the perimeter with a 150m reinforced capping beam, with a further 67 internal piles and 59 bolt boxes installed that allow for a perfect receipt of the structural steel. Over 8000 tons were excavated from the site to facilitate the underground car park
Derbyshire Industrial Estate
Fire water containment bund, design and build
​
To comply with COMAH (Control of Major Accident Hazards) regulations. The site needed to attenuate any contaminated water in the event of a fire.
Brunel Civil Engineering undertook the design and build, to enable a minimum of 300 cubic meters of water to be retained on the site in the event of a major accident.
A 68m reinforced concrete wall was installed to act as the bund wall to retain the volume of water required.
A self contained automated penstock has been installed on the outlet drainage pipe from site, which is linked to the fire alarm system.
In the event of a fire the penstock is activated which automatically seals off any water leaving the site, with any contaminated water being retained within the designed bund wall. Notifications are sent to the site management confirming containment is fully activated and operational.
