Civil Engineering Design Support
Project Overview
Morrison Water Services, contracted by Yorkshire Water, required ongoing civil engineering design support for their diverse water infrastructure projects. Beam provided these design services, covering both planned maintenance and emergency construction works across a range of water supply and wastewater treatment plants.
Design & Engineering
Our remit included designing a drainage system and concrete foundation for a Community Heat hub within a new 1,000-unit residential development, addressing complex ground conditions while ensuring security and operational efficiency.
Conclusion
Our ability to adapt to both planned and emergency projects, coupled with our understanding of complex ground conditions and treatment plant requirements, allowed us to provide valuable design solutions that ensured the reliable and efficient operation of critical water infrastructure.

Inspection of Reinforced Aerated Autoclaved Concrete (RAAC) & Stabilisation Works
Project Overview
The project focused on the inspection and subsequent stabilisation works of Reinforced Aerated Autoclaved Concrete (RAAC) in multiple sites within a school, following concerns raised by the Trust regarding the structural integrity of the building materials used.
Design & Engineering
Upon conducting a thorough inspection, we discovered that several areas of the school contained RAAC in a severely dilapidated state. This alarming finding necessitated immediate action, leading to the closure of certain sections of the school to ensure the safety of all occupants. To facilitate this, we implemented temporary stabilisation measures, which included the strategic placement of props to support the affected structures.
Conclusion
Through our detailed inspection and responsive design approach, we successfully identified the issues associated with RAAC and implemented effective stabilisation measures to safeguard the school's occupants. The collaboration with the school has resulted in a strategic plan for permanent solutions, ensuring a secure and conducive learning environment for students and staff alike.
