Quality and safety

Tested layers, safe sites

Quality

Tested at every layer

Every material and every layer is tested against the contract specification before the next one goes down. Our field laboratory covers soil, aggregate, bitumen and concrete, and the records are kept for the client's engineer.

  • Field density and moisture tests
  • Aggregate gradation and bitumen content
  • Concrete cube testing
  • Level and thickness checks

Safety

Safe sites, safe roads

Everyone on our sites works in full personal protective equipment. Work next to live traffic is signed, barricaded and managed by flag persons, and plant is run only by trained operators.

  • Helmets, hi-vis vests and safety shoes for all
  • Toolbox talk before each shift
  • Traffic management at every work zone
  • First aid on every site

Our process

From tender to handover

  1. Tender and planning

    We study the drawings, quantities, specifications and site, then prepare the programme and resource plan.

  2. Survey and setting out

    We carry out a joint survey with the client's engineer and record the alignment, levels and existing services.

  3. Earthwork and structures

    We build the embankment, subgrade, culverts and drains first, so that the road stays dry.

  4. Pavement layers

    We lay the sub-base, base and bituminous or concrete surface to the design thickness and levels.

  5. Quality and safety checks

    We test every layer before the next one goes down, and keep work zones signed and barricaded.

  6. Handover

    We hold a joint inspection, put any defects right, and hand over the test records and as-built drawings.

Standards

Built to the specification

Road and bridge contracts in India are usually built to the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) Specifications for Road and Bridge Works and the codes of the Indian Roads Congress (IRC). We build to the drawings and the specification in each contract.

Every material and every layer is tested against the specification before the next one goes down, and the records are kept for the client's engineer.
