[Project 🏗️] Remea France's recent industrial project in Beauvais! 🏭 From 2019 to 2023, Remea tackled a significant environmental challenge at a site in Beauvais, where soil and groundwater quality had been compromised due to industrial activities. 🔧 Remea designed and implemented their Permeable Reactive Barrier (PRB) technology, effectively containing and purifying the groundwater flowing through the site. 🌱 In the initial phase, Remea successfully decontaminated the soil on both sides and beneath the water table. But it didn't stop there. Remea faced the additional challenge of dealing with potential explosive remnants from World War II while preserving the integrity of the PRB. Their solution? Employing the slurry substitution technique to safely extract and transport 10,000 tons of heavily polluted soil to their treatment facility in Gaillon (27). There, through biodegradation of organic compounds, Remea cleaned the soil and repurposed it for use as backfill. 🌍 This endeavour not only safeguarded our environment and natural resources but also offered a second life to treated soil. All of this, meticulously tailored and executed to perfection! #remea #soilremediation #france #depollution

📰 FIEC EU in the media 👉 L'Express Read full article in French: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/d9FTvxBp "The major challenges of #construction" discussed this year at INTERMAT Paris Among other: #decarbonisation #energy #digitalisation, #CorporateSocialResponsibility #training #employment #dialogue with public authorities. Extract from quote by Domenico Campogrande, FIEC Director General About INTERMAT Paris 2024, the European exhibition: 🗣 “The ecological #transition and the #digitalisation of the building activities imply stronger cooperation between all players in the #ValueChain. It is up to us (FIEC), as representative of the #construction companies, (...) to contribute to strengthening this link. We therefore considered that the partnership with INTERMAT would be a considerable step in this direction. We believe that this wide exhibition and platform provide an excellent opportunity for construction companies to learn how #machine and #equipment manufacturers integrate new #technologies and requirements into their #products. #Innovation and technological progress are evolving very quickly and those who fail to meet this challenge will not be able to remain #competitive."

The last month at Pipis has seen the construction of the basement continue. The formwork of the level 1 basement is now 80% complete as the team prepares to finalise this and pour the concrete. The final step in this process is the completion of the formwork (Temporary structure that allows the structural reinforcement to be placed as well as the concrete).    As part of our basement construction, LPS Group saw the completion of the shotcrete finish and waterproofing to the inside face of our secant walls. An intricate process, this step is crucial for waterproofing and ensuring our basement remains dry long into the future. The crafted wood floated finish to the wall stands as a true testament to the team's dedication to maintaining a high-quality level of finishes.     The completion of our basement one raft slab has allowed us to be able to securely house the base of our SIERA Tower Crane. With the first scheduled assembly being canceled due to wet weather conditions and the crane assembly being a high-risk activity, we are excited to say that the crane went up in the first week of April.    Another big achievement this month was the undergrounding of our overhead power lines. A challenging and costly process, implementing this was crucial for the aesthetic and functional integrity of the building's western façade and was something we felt the project deserved. By permanently relocating these powerlines underground, we have allowed our future residents to enjoy unobstructed views of the McPherson range, which is made up of the Springbrook & Lamington National Parks and Mount Warning.    Finally, we thought it a good opportunity to introduce you to the team at LPS Group who are working as our Building contractor for Pipis. Holding a very close relationship with LPS Group and collaborating closely together on the build of Pipis, we feel it is important to share some insight into who they are, their history, ideals, and values so that you too can understand the trusted relationships that SIERA holds with those who we partner with to deliver your future home.    We look forward to updating you all next month!
