Engineering Solutions for Temporary Works & Site Establishment

Most temporary works are constructed in the early enabling phase of a construction site, whilst the site is being established. These works need to be safe, functional and efficient.

Geosynthetics Ltd offers innovative, value-engineered solutions that provide the perfect answer for your site’s temporary works, ensuring safety, efficiency, and significant cost savings. In most cases, these works fall under the design and build responsibility of the main contractor. Our solutions can have a two-fold impact on time, cost, and the environment.

Creating temporary working areas within Tree Root Protection Areas (RPAs) raises significant complications. BS:5837:2012 stipulates that ground protection must support site traffic without causing soil compaction. Our Cellweb® TRP system is specifically designed to meet this standard, preventing root severance and compaction. Combined with our Treetex Pollution Control Geotextile, it also prevents pollutants from entering the root bed, ensuring roots are left undamaged. It is the system of choice for specifiers needing a reliable solution for temporary ground protection.

At Geosynthetics Ltd, our team of specialist engineers—including geotechnical experts, Tree Root Protection specialists, and our fully qualified in-house Civil Engineers—provides unparalleled advice. We will develop solutions tailored to your specific site requirements, from subgrade conditions and construction loads to the complexities of working within RPAs. We also provide complementary technical recommendations and educational seminars on our solutions.
