Introduction

Wentworth House Partnership are a well-established and award winning specialist design consultancy, formed in 1999. With a track record for our imagination, initiative and high level of technical expertise, we are now recognised as one of the leading temporary works and geotechnical design consultancies in the UK. Health & Safety is a priority in all of our designs, and our philosophy is to cooperate with the Principal Designer and all other project stakeholders and produce method statements and risk assessments for all major works, ensuring the health and safety of both site personnel and the public. In order to provide the best possible service to our clients, WHP offers a flexible design package to suit individual requirements. We work closely with all parties to provide a personal service and fully understand their needs to achieve a satisfactory design outcome within the agreed programme. With our contractor-based mindset, we are focused on constructability, timely delivery and providing the best value for our clients. Our experience covers all areas of temporary works, refurbishment and foundations in the building and civil engineering sectors in commercial, residential and industrial buildings, including: cofferdams and deep basements, headings, needling, shoring, façade and party wall supports in busy city centres across the country. We also have wide experience of working with Grade I and II listed buildings. Sustainability is one of our prime considerations, and as part of our commitment to reducing embodied carbon we are one of the first temporary works consultancies to commit to specifying low carbon concrete. We have also led research to validate suitability of low carbon concrete, in collaboration with Keltbray Group with applications such as HIPER® Pile.
