Great slope stability project .... looking forwards to hearing all about this one via a Webinar from Hollie Coalville on 9th July - details to follow soon @BAMRitchies
MT @BAMRitchies ·We are finished at West St Leonards after a challenging six months. Massive thanks to everyone involved for their huge efforts that have gone into delivering this critical slope stabilization to an excellent standard in such challenging times. #slopestabilisation

Who inspired you to become a #CivilEngineer? For @EngineerHayley, it was a presentation from a graduate female civil engineer at a careers event at school, when she was about 15. Share your story, inspire others❤️ #WhatIsCivilEngineering
"I’m a civil engineer, but I’m also... a 2nd dan black belt in Taekwondo and a qualified instructor. I’ve been doing Taekwondo for nearly 10 years." @EngineerHayley - Site engineer for @TaylorWoodrow1 👉 bit.ly/3eCJSA7 #WhatIsCivilEngineering
