Dewatering creates soil stability and enables excavations to go below the groundwater level. Stuart Wells Limited has over 40 years experience in the provision of wellpointing, deep wells, ejectors and pressure relief wells
Stuart Wells offer a dewatering design service as part of our quotation and proposals package. Please contact us to discuss any dewatering requirements or groundwater issues you have.
For most shallow excavations and pipelines vacuum wellpoints offer an economical and effective method of groundwater control. For more information on well pointing, please contact Stuart Wells Limited.
For deep excavations and shafts, deep well dewatering consisting of drilled wells pumped using submersible borehole pumps is an effective groundwater control measure.
For groundwater depressurisation and to achieve soil stability in low permeable silts and silty sands an ejector or eductor dewatering system is very effective. Please contact us to discuss any dewatering requirements.
To mitigate basal heave risk and generate stable soil condition. Pressure Relief Wells can be installed to offer a preferential groundwater pathway and reduce porewater pressure beneath the base of an excavation or structure.
