Cavendish Nuclear has a team of Civil, Structural, Geotechnical and Environmental Engineers supported by Nuclear Layout and Building Services specialists, in strategic locations throughout the UK. This allows us to deliver full facility, equipment design, and construction support to the UK’s nuclear decommissioning, power generation and defence markets, with a proven track record in delivering innovative solutions.
Our expertise within the nuclear industry encompasses the entire development lifecycle from concept design and optioneering through to decommissioning, for both new build and existing facilities. We are experienced in leading multi-discipline workshops at each project stage. The provision of multiple solutions that satisfy complex project interfaces and constraints forms a key part of our approach. We are also extremely conversant on the interaction between our engineering activities and the nuclear safety case process, such that the two are fully integrated at all project stages. A number of our projects involve the application of novel loading scenarios (such as dynamic, seismic, and impact actions), complex geometries, and non-linear material behaviour. Consequently we have access to, and experience in the use of advanced analytical software to deal with such situations, as well as verified and integrated design packages that provide optimised solutions whilst ensuring full traceability of results.
