Real time monitoring
Antarctica
'This project presents many unique challenges, including our environmental monitoring. Acting as a responsible partner, delivering innovative and sustainable solutions for our customers and with our partners, has shaped who we are. Mabey Hire’s team of engineers have worked closely with BAM to provide a bespoke monitoring system capable of overcoming these challenges and supplying the required data in a simple and easy to use format.'

'If Mabey Hire not stepped in with such a comprehensive plan for the propping and monitoring, the alternative would have been more expensive, requiring temporary foundations and numerous sub-contractors. The ability to monitor the structure 24/7, also enabled the M60 to remain open during the works'

‘Mabey Hire responded to our bespoke request promptly and efficiently, developing a shoring and jacking system which enabled us to lift the platforms onto the support towers and then hang them there as different loads and movements were trialled. Thanks to their support and equipment, we now feel confident in tackling the main bridge structure in the coming months.’

Bank Street Station, London
'When tunnelling in such complex locations as Central London, there is no room for error. It was vital that our construction and engineering teams had access to a complete real-time view of the state of surrounding structures, as well as the project itself, and any environmental impact. Mabey Hire's monitoring solution enabled the works to go ahead safely and efficiently as planned and provided assurance that the integrity of structures would not be compromised.'

'Having worked with Mabey Hire and MWP on several projects over the past few years, we drafted in their services feeling confident that they would be able to support this urgent and challenging excavation on a busy, utilities-heavy London street. Digging holes this depth must be approached with the utmost safety, which is why supporting the excavation with a reliable groundworks solution assured we could go as deep as possible, completely safe in the knowledge that the walls were supported throughout.'
