Geoquest offers engineered solutions for the construction of embankments using geosythetic reinforcements.

Geoquest offers cost-effective solutions for constructing embankments over piles, utilising high strength geosynthetic basal reinforcements.

Integrating a load transfer platform over pile inclusions, this approach minimises differential settlements and reduces the number of piles required, ensuring long-term stability and enhanced efficiency.

Ideal for bridges, piers, tanks, ramps, and approaches over soft soils.

Advantages

  • Reduces the need for closely spaced piles or concrete slabs, lowering costs.
  • Better settlement control.
  • Faster construction.

This innovative method simplifies construction, optimises material use, and delivers a durable solution for infrastructure over soft soils.

“I have worked with Geoquest on two previous projects and both times have exceeded my expectation. I find the product easy to work with, quick for construction and a good final product, looking the part. There is a good turn around time from the Geoquest team and always have answered any queries I have had. I would definitely use them again.”

Patrick Goodwin, Section Engineer, Graham Construction

“Excellent Service, system and simple to build – would always recommend”

J Millar, Project Manager, Osborne Infrastructure

“The design and materials supplied by Geoquest for the new Velindre Cancer Centre bridge was excellent, providing a high-quality product at a competitive price. The technical assistance with both the design and installation was highly commendable leading to a very high standard structure upon completion.

We would thoroughly recommend Geoquest for any retained earth projects and will recommend early engagement on future projects to utilise their vast technical knowledge for value engineering.”

Tom Morris, Project Manager, Walters

“Having used Geoquest for the provision of a reinforced earth wall system on a new highway scheme I found them to be very helpful and easy to work with in the run up to construction and also throughout the construction. The quality of the final product was very good and looks well now that the work is complete and open to traffic.”

Dave Mantle, Senior Site Manager, Octavius

“Osborne Infrastructure selected Geoquest due to their reputation and expertise. They delivered on both. They provided both the design and the fabrication of the reinforced earth abutments for the M27 Romsey Road bridge on time and within budget. Design changes due to unforeseen site conditions were dealt with efficiently with expert advice on hand to ensure we produced the right solution for our client Highways England.

I would be more than happy to recommend Geoquest and would make them my go to specialist for this type of work.”

M Whale, Senior Site Manager, Osborne Infrastructure
