Evolution were tasked with undertaking the full groundworks package at the Orchard village estate as a follow on to the demolition, works already undertaken.
The project was designed using the latest BIM 360 3D modelling technology and set out on-site using BIM 360 layout. Full utility infrastructure was installed with large main connections, district central heating equipment and power networks. The RC structure itself is large and has been programmed to be followed by pre-fabricated units. The program for our works was therefore vital to avoid additional costs to the client for storing pre-fabricated units.
The main access to the adjacent school & housing estate was completely removed as part of our works. This road was reconstructed in a different location on-site with out of hours works and complex traffic management during the summer break and completed on programme.

Evolution Enabling were employed to undertake a fully encompassing service. This comprised of:
1. Full site set up as PC
2. Removal off-site of over 20,000m3 of spoil stockpiled from
historic phases.
3. Full logistic set up and supervision of all muck away
operations comprising of material surveying,
testing, weighbridge installation and management
4. Full ground works and civils packages to prepare site for
the arrival of site concierge units.
​
Due to various works in the area under previous phases and differing main contractors, the logistic phase was particularly challenging. However, the spoil removal phase was completed on time and within budget without incident.
The site was prepared for the arrival of the new development concierge suite, with foundations, drainage, car park construction and external landscaping. Coupled with the contracted work additional works were awarded to facilitate the installation of further district heating networks, power, water and services supplies. These works encompassed detailed traffic management planning with the local authority, the client and the various other contractors in the area.
​
Deep excavations in the highways were designed, planned and managed to ensure safe works with all 278-works undertaken in house networks. The RC structure itself is large and has been programmed to be followed by pre-fabricated units. The program for our works was therefore vital to avoid additional costs to the client for storing pre-fabricated units.
The main access to the adjacent school was completely removed as part of our works. This road was reconstructed
in a different location on-site without of hours works and complex traffic management during the summer break and completed on programme.

Evolution Enabling were contracted by Jerram Falkus to undertake the complete enabling and groundworks package within a live school in Plaistow.
The package consisted of:
• Hoarding design and installation of kentledge block
hoarding
• Complete site strip of exiting tarmac playground
• Pile cropping and reinforced concrete ground beam
installation
• All associated drainage consisting of clay and plastic pipe,
PCC manholes and an attenuation tank
• Installation of all service ducts
• Kerbs edgings and a paving finish
• Structural slab pours onto the first floor
The activities took place in a live school so there were allocated times for deliveries and access. Evolution worked with the client and the school to avoid disruption to the school attendees and ensure the project was completed on programme.
There was further drainage required internally which Evolution along with the client planned and operated to
work outside of school times and using the electrical plant to ensure noise limits and emissions were not
exceeded.

Evolution employed specialist UXO contractors for the initial UXO desktop study and then subsequent intrusive investigation. The site has an exceptionally large sewer pipeline running directly through it. Its location was unknown upon arrival. Evolution compiled a strategy to locate and expose the sewer, which was then surveyed and the information issued to the designers for construction drawings to be established. There were large obstructions on the plot at varying depths, Evolution removed these obstructions and backfilled them with suitable material and compacted them in layers.
Evolution then undertook the following:
• Pile matt installation and pile attendances.
• Pile cropping.
• Ground beams installation including all reinforcement and
concrete.
• Drainage installation at varying depths, break into the
main sewer line.
• Backfill the site with granular material.
• Installation of RSJ goalposts.
The project was completed on programme and handed back to the client for the construction of brickwork with all
elements signed off by the client’s structural engineer without issue.
