Course Overview

Maintenance budgets are cut on soil investigation and settlement treatment in good years and paid for in bad ones. Participants come from operational and oversight roles, and both perspectives on settlement treatment are used deliberately. Each session closes with a decision the participant must justify about this part of engineering and maintenance work in their own setting. The programme takes participants through soil investigation and settlement treatment end to end, from framing the problem to closing it out. They gain the ability to sequence improvements to the wider engineering and maintenance work agenda in an order their organisation can absorb. Comparative studies of settlement treatment across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. Teams frequently over-invest in documenting soil investigation and settlement treatment and under-invest in testing it. The programme closes with an action plan for settlement treatment that each participant writes for their own organisation.
