Development
GB Card & Partners understands the requirements of our developer clients and their design teams and offers support in due diligence, pre-purchase acquisitions, feasibility and planning through to the design and construction phases. Providing geotechnical and remediation design for greenfield and contaminated sites, our solutions take into account political, commercial and practical constraints, and often utilise and enhance the existing conditions and environmental setting in providing the optimal design. Our experienced team will support you throughout the development process, providing expertise and the technical link between developer and statutory consultees.

Construction
GB Card & Partners has longstanding relationships with a number of local, national and international engineering consultancies and contractors, offering tender support, value engineering, temporary and permanent works design as well as inspection, verification and supervisory roles. Our experienced staff are able to offer technical support throughout feasibility stages, initial design and during construction. We offer the best value to our clients when engaged at an early stage in the project. Through close relationships with our clients, we have developed an understanding of personal and business requirements and can tailor deliverables to meet their specific needs.

Engineering
Our experienced Chartered professionals provide engineering design services to structural engineers, multidisciplinary teams and to individual clients offering advice, assessment and design. Numerical analysts undertake risk assessment and ground modelling of contaminants for brownfield development and voluntary clean up, whilst geotechnical assessment is undertaken from first principles as well as utilising our extensive suite of 2D and 3D ground modelling and design software. We offer input as a standalone specialist or as part of a wider design team.

Expert Witness
Our senior staff provide peer review and expert opinion on a variety of civil, geotechnical and geoenvironmental issues. Dr Geoff Card is registered as an Expert Witness on the ICE register and has acted as lead witness on a number of high profile national and international disputes. Dispute resolution and arbitration are amongst several skills offered to the legal, construction and property professions.

Professional Services
As a niche, independent consultancy, GB Card & Partners is well positioned to provide an unbiased and independent service to other industry professionals. Peer review, technical support, tender advice and contract input are areas in which we are able to support colleagues within the engineering, development and construction sectors. GBCP regularly supports multidisciplinary consultants, local authorities and planning & development teams to add value and additional technical ability to their internal teams.
