AF Howland Associates Limited(AFHA) is a well-established geotechnical and geo-environmental consultancy with two cost centres based in the South East of England. Our head office is located in Norwich, Norfolk and we have a subsidiary office in Long Mefford, Suffolk.
From these we operate nationally on infrastructure, utilities frameworks, and small to large developments on both greenfield and brownfield projects throughout the UK. We specialise in providing the necessary data to allow the design and construction of engineering projects from the initial ground investigation through to reviewing the ground parameters for the scheme in hand. This may include the installation of high quality geotechnical and environmental instrumentation for monitoring civil engineering and infrastructure works, to include ground gas and water quality assessments.
We have a particular expertise in the trenchless construction and for assessing the consequential soil structure interaction and for gaining regulatory authority approval for such works.
We have developed our own industry approved software(GEODASY) for geotechnical data processing and its assessment to simplify, and improve the production of report ready exploratory hole records sheets and other data charts.
AFHA joined the Celnor Group in December 2023 and benefits from the support of the Group and the interaction with other organisations under the Group umbrella.
