highways
Worldwide highway pavement evaluation, design, and management experience.
Good pavement engineering advice stems from understanding the principal design requirements within each environment and understanding why design guidance is written the way it is. At Fjori we don’t see road pavements as something to be designed from a chart – that way we provide pavement designs that are what clients need. No more. No less.
From many years’ experience appraising, designing, and specifying materials for road pavements, we provide a variety of pavement engineering services for those investing in, designing, constructing, or maintaining high speed carriageways, urban roads, and estate roads.
With experience working on pavement maintenance strategies across the globe.
Our experience from current work and previous work with other consultants includes pavement maintenance strategies for major road privatisations in the Netherlands, Turkey, Ireland, Brazil, and Finland.
The experience of our team also includes development of the latest concrete paving designs through our long association with the British Insitu Concrete Paving Association as well as the development of the pavement engineering specifications (MCDRW Series 700, 800, 900 & 1000) for bitumen bound and cement bound materials, other hydraulically bound and unbound materials for the National Roads Authority (NRA) in Ireland.
