Keller Geotechnical, winners at Ground Engineering awards.
At the 2009 Ground Engineering Awards in London, the Thrandeston Bog project
won the coveted award for best UK project with a geotechnical value over £1M.
The award was accepted by contractors Keller Geotechnical and Nuttal John Martin
who worked with consultants Mott Macdonald and RD Geotech for the client Network
Rail.
Construction of the original London to Norwich railway in 1847 had been problematic
because the bog comprised over 10m of peat and very soft clays overlying chalk.
There were repeated slope failures and embankment settlement therefore a solution
was improvised, creating a raft of brushwood faggots across the bog upon which
the embankment, 5m high and 650m long, was formed.
