Lancaster
- Project: Lancaster Flood Alleviation Scheme (See also Case Studies)
- Client: Mowlem/Environmental Agency
- Value: £1.4m
- Date: April - October 2006
A major contract in which Beach carried out the earthworks as well as the stabilisation. The formation of a stabilised bund to protect the low lying areas of Lancaster using lime and cement. We had to dig a 4 metre deep burrow pit to produce enough material to build the bund to the specified height and width. The clay found at depth had a MC's of in excess of 75%. We were able to produce a mix design using lime that enabled us to stabilise the 'host' into an engineered fill. The 'host' material was such that we built a tracked powder spreader - unique to the UK industry.
