Concept delivers Phase 1 ground investigations for East West Rail — providing geotechnical & geo-environmental data to inform the Oxford–Cambridge rail corridor design.

At the heart of London's sporting heritage, Lord's Cricket Ground (Lord's) stands as a beacon of cricket's enduring legacy. Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) was founded in 1787, and since 1814 has been based at Lord's Cricket Ground, known as the Home of Cricket, in St John's Wood, London. Marylebone Cricket Club has proposed an ambitious redevelopment of the Tavern and Allen Stands to enhance the spectator experience and significantly increase seating capacity. This project, aimed at ensuring Lord's continues to host major cricketing events with increased audience capacity, whilst remaining a world-class venue, is being brought to life through the collaboration between site investigation specialists Concept, engineering experts Buro Happold, architectural innovators WilkinsonEyre, and Marylebone Cricket Club. The redevelopment seeks to intertwine modernity with tradition, enhancing the ground's capacity while honouring its historical significance. The project envisions a future where the Lord's legacy will continue to thrive by amplifying the echoes of cricketing triumphs with modern enhancements.

Spanning a 9km coastline from Shoreham Port to Brighton Marina, the Brighton Marina to River Adur Coastal Scheme ground investigation aimed at bolstering coastal defences to mitigate long-term flood and erosion risks in light of predicted sea level rises from climate change. This project underscores a collaborative venture between Concept and its sister company IN-SITU under Phenna Group, tackling complex geotechnical challenges.

The ground investigation was required to establish the geology and geotechnical parameters at the site of a proposed new Energy from Waste centre.

Geo-environmental Ground Investigation to determine underlying ground conditions on a disused historic landfill site which was redeveloped and landscaped in the 1980s to become a leisure park known as Festival Park.

The purpose of the investigation was to undertake a survey to confirm the location and depth of any buried utilities within the extents of the proposed scheme and to obtain soil samples for subsequent waste classification.

The purpose of the investigation was to understand the ground and groundwater conditions at the site and to determine the nature and extent of any ground and groundwater contamination.

Concept Engineering Consultants were commissioned to undertake a geotechnical site investigation to understand the ground and groundwater conditions of a railway embankment.

The site was located within the boundaries of London City Airport and King George V Dock. The proposed development was the expansion of the airport terminal, apron and taxiways.

Due to historic slope stability issues and a more recent slope failure along an area of hillside located adjacent to the A59 in North Yorkshire.

Concept became involved with this project at the pre-feasibility design stage where the client required two possible locations for the new Operation Control Centre (OCC) to be assessed.

Concept were the main site investigation contractor for projects carried out for BBMMJV (Balfour Beatty Mott Macdonald Joint Venture) on the AREA 4 Highways Agency MAC Framework.

A detailed ground investigation to inform the design for the proposed redevelopment of a 13.6 acre site in Canary Wharf.
