Richter’s engineers have industry-leading experience in the assessment of ground and groundwater conditions.
We endeavour to provide the most sensible and cost-effective advice on all geotechnical structures, including foundations, retaining walls, embankments, earthworks, bridges, tunnels, and shafts.
With the ability to design geotechnical solutions for even the most complex rail, civil engineering, highways, building, and marine projects, we apply a combination of conventional analytical tools, along with advanced 2D and 3D Finite Element Analysis to include an evaluation of soil-structure interaction.
