Learn MoreSpecialist building services — pools, gas, process plant, and other non-standard MEP systems designed with Cadreatech’s multidisciplinary team.
Learn MoreHydrants, sprinklers, hose reels, fire pumps, and fire alarm design coordinated with architecture, structure, and county fire requirements.
Learn MoreAir conditioning and HVAC design for commercial and institutional buildings — load calculations, equipment selection, and construction coordination.
Learn MoreEPRA-compliant electrical design — LV/MV distribution, lighting, generators, solar, and ELV — coordinated with Cadreatech architecture and structure.
Learn MoreThe ground beneath your site is unique — and the only way to know what it can support is to investigate it properly. Cadreatech conducts geotechnical field investigations across Kenya — borehole drilling, SPT testing, trial pits, cone penetration tests, and laboratory analysis — all reported to BS 5930:2015 and interpreted by qualified geotechnical engineers. Every report includes bearing capacity calculations, foundation recommendations, groundwater data, and concrete specification — giving your structural engineer verified ground facts before a single foundation is designed.
Learn MoreCadreatech develops professional foundation recommendations for building and infrastructure projects across Kenya — strip footings, pad footings, raft foundations, under-reamed piles, bored piles, and ground improvement solutions, all based on verified site investigation data and qualified geotechnical engineering judgement. Every recommendation includes allowable bearing capacity, foundation depth, settlement limits, concrete specification, and earthworks guidance — giving your structural engineer verified ground facts before a single foundation is designed.
Learn MoreUnderstanding Black Cotton Soil and Why It Causes Building Damage Black cotton soil is one of the most problematic foundation soils in many parts of Kenya because it is expansive. This means it swells significantly when wet and shrinks when dry, causing repeated ground movement beneath a structure. Over time, this movement can lead to […]
Learn MoreWhat Is Bearing Capacity Evaluation and Why It Matters Bearing capacity evaluation is one of the most critical components of safe foundation design. It determines the maximum load that soil or rock can safely support without risk of shear failure, excessive settlement, or long-term structural distress. In Kenya, varying soil conditions such as black cotton […]
Learn MoreSoil numbers mean nothing until an engineer interprets them. Cadreatech specifies, commissions, and interprets soil classification and laboratory testing for building and infrastructure projects across Kenya — particle size distribution, Atterberg limits, CBR, swelling pressure, consolidation, shear strength, and chemical tests — all translated into clear foundation recommendations your structural engineer can act on immediately.
