Rock Slope Assessment; Station Road, Pontrhydyfen

Our engineering geologists initially undertook a desk study review of historical and geological information for the local area to establish the geological setting of the excavated rock slope before implementing a Rock Slope Assessment.

This was followed by a careful geotechnical inspection of the soil and rock materials within the excavated slope face.

Assessing the findings from nearby rock exposures, it was clear that the rock blocks within the excavated slope had moved.  The kinematic potential for various rock and soil slope failure mechanisms was assessed, and a number of remedial options were recommended based on the calculated level of risk.
