Services

The diverse range of roles that I have experienced throughout my career have provided me with a capability to support several functions across the asphalt and highways industry including, but not limited to those listed below. These skills are kept up to date through my membership of a number of relevant professional bodies combined with the support of an extensive list of contacts from all aspects of the industry.

Training and Development

I have a number of CPD (Continuing Professional Development) presentations that cover the more common aspects of asphalt and pavement design which I can provide at your premises.

I would also be happy to discuss preparing bespoke CPDs to suit your specific needs.

Alternatively, if you are a materials supplier or systems provider I would be very happy to discuss providing your CPD presentations to your clients on your behalf.

General Advice

Sometimes a quick phone call or email to a specialist can solve a problem that would otherwise take hours to answer. Let me help with your material selection, pavement design, buildability issues, cause of failure, specifications and any other pavement or materials related issues.

Pavement Design

Let me help you to identify potential risks, select the most appropriate materials and describe them properly, consider any buildability difficulties and a host of other issues to ensure that your client gets the solution they require, whether it be for a large highway scheme or a small car park designed using Sustainable Drainage System (SuDS) principles.

Site Visits / Inspections

Whenever site visits are carried out, whether pre-design, during installation or as part of a failure investigation, it is crucial that they are thorough and properly recorded. Allow me to provide you with what you need to know in a simple and easy to understand format.

Liaison

It can often be difficult managing relationships between clients, designers, suppliers and installers. Let me be the independent go-between to provide the necessary liaison and technical support.

Product Development / Marketing

With a long career in pavement materials and new product development, I can offer support and advice on the development and marketing of specialist materials and processes.

Work with me

Please make contact with me whether by phone or email.

We can then discuss your requirements and I can then make some proposals as to how I can help.
