How we do it

Halverson Civil Limited draws from years of experience to offer a package of services that enable us to deliver projects efficiently for our clients. Our core focus on geotechnical construction allows us to provide specialist expertise based on local conditions. Our range of ground engineering service capabilities addresses a number of technically difficult problems that are associated with geologically insecure areas.

Costing

We assess every project on its own merits, breaking the project down by schedule so we can assess the client’s goals and then price from first principles. Wherever possible, we look to add value, reduce costs and mitigate risks to the client.

Having an experienced team means we can identify areas for improvement and propose alternative approaches in order to deliver the best outcome for the project budget. We can provide design and build services or collaborate directly with the engineering team to create an economic solution.

Value engineering

HCL has extensive experience in the construction of numerous geotechnical solutions. Having completed over $60 million of projects, we have the ability to assess existing designs for optimisation and propose alternative solutions that enhance value.

Our Value Engineering solutions can range from broad changes of design to improving design parameters. Value Engineering stretches beyond just calculations- in many instances, the concept of what is being proposed can be improved on.

Our collaborative efforts with the design and engineering teams early in the process have resulted in the realisation of huge gains via savings during construction such as the reduction of direct costs, programme, materials, and less landfill waste overall.

Project management

Our enthusiastic and forward-thinking project management team can plan your project resources and program. We provide guidance for our clients to make informed decisions for projects right from the design stage onwards.

Experienced staff

Our team is comprised of a diverse group of skilled professionals many of whom have been with HCL for over ten years. We strive for continuous improvement and staff regularly attend industry training and events to support their learning and development. We support pathways into employment and the construction industry.

  • Drill rigs

“The professional and collaborative approach Halverson undertook with pile testing gave us a high degree of certainty around the foundation design and construction performance. This gave me peace of mind that we were using the right foundation solution with the right contractor.”
