Core Service

Reinforced Concrete & Civil Engineering

Full package delivery. Experienced resource. One standard.

AXYCAD delivers reinforced concrete packages and civil engineering works on major UK infrastructure — transport, energy, water and industrial. We manage the full scope from procurement and engineering coordination through reinforcement, formwork, concrete placement, groundworks, drainage, civils, quality assurance and structured handover.

Where projects need capability rather than a package, we provide experienced engineers, site managers and supervisors who integrate into your delivery team and work to your systems. We also supply surveying equipment for hire, pre-construction support, programme development and compliance documentation — the services that sit around the concrete scope and make packages deliverable.

Our team has close to two decades of delivery experience across programmes including HS2, National Highways, MOD, data centres and the water industry. We built AXYCAD around a straightforward principle: a subcontractor should be able to manage its own scope, close out its own documentation, and hand back a package that's complete. That's the standard we work to, regardless of the contract model.

How We Work

Single-Point Package Delivery

One contract. One point of contact. Every element of the reinforced concrete scope managed under a single package — from pre-construction through to handover.

Pre-Construction & Planning

  • Buildability review and construction sequencing
  • Formwork system selection and design coordination
  • Reinforcement scheduling and detailing checks
  • Method statements, risk assessments and ITPs

Procurement & Supply Chain

  • Reinforcement procurement — cut and bent to schedule
  • Concrete supply chain setup and mix design approval
  • Formwork system procurement or hire
  • Ancillary materials, consumables and fixings

Site Delivery

  • Reinforcement fixing by experienced steel fixers
  • Formwork installation, alignment and striking
  • Concrete placement, vibration and finishing
  • Curing, protection and remedial works

Groundworks & Civils

  • Drainage — foul, surface water and attenuation systems
  • Duct routes, service corridors and backfill
  • Piling mats, working platforms and reduced-level digs
  • Hard landscaping, footpaths, kerbing and temporary excavation support

Commercial & QA

  • Progress measurement and interim applications
  • Quality records, pour cards and inspection sign-offs
  • As-built surveys and documentation packs
  • Structured handover with full QA trail

Concrete

Structural Concrete

  • Pump, skip and direct-pour placement
  • High-workability and self-compacting mixes
  • Water-retaining concrete to BS 8007 / BS EN 1992-3
