Navigating complexities with precise site investigations
As part of the initial phase of development, pinpointing the ideal site is key to the successful planning application of a new crematoria. Crafting a seamless planning proposal demands meticulous site selection, a task that’s even more paramount when it comes to crematoria. Our mission? To adeptly unravel these complexities and pave the way for your project’s success.
One of the first stages of development of a new crematorium site is the assessment of the land on which it is to be developed. With a rich spectrum of expertise, CDS specialise in conducting diverse site investigations, all aimed at gauging the suitability of your chosen land. This encompasses everything from geotechnical and geoenvironmental assessments to critical factors like flood susceptibility and potential unexploded ordnance hazards.
The CDS team carry out the following investigations:
- Geotechnical site investigation to assess foundation design
- Soakage testing to assess soil infiltration rates
- Flood Risk Assessment and SuDs Design
- Agricultural land classification reports
- Phase I Desk Study Assessments
- Contamination Investigations
- Unexploded Ordnance Risk Assessment and Reporting
