LAMBETH: DISTINCTLY DIFFERENT
Lambeth Associates was established as the in-house engineering consultancy of Gammon Construction in 1976. Playing a critical and strategic design role in the operations of Gammon and its joint venture partners, Lambeth now has over 35 years of outstanding engineering achievements in Hong Kong, Singapore, Mainland China, Macau, Thailand and Vietnam.
Lambeth teamwork Lambeth’s highly-qualified team brings together experience gained as contractors, consultants
and academics working on high profile and complex projects that have been the envy of the
construction world.
Synergy and partnershipLambeth’s close integration and synergy with Gammon, one of Asia’s leading multidisciplinary
construction organisations, and Balfour Beatty, a shareholder of Gammon, has instilled into our
staff enormously valuable practical know-how, cost and time awareness and an instinct for both
innovation and risk control. The attributes born out of these partnerships allow Lambeth to
seamlessly ‘design in’ economy, safety, and sustainability and to mitigate risk at every step.
Safety by designLambeth shares Gammon’s aspiration of Zero Harm; eliminating fatalities and serious injuries on
construction sites through the removal of risks that could potentially lead to their occurrence.
At every opportunity Lambeth looks to remove risks through engineering design to make projects
easier to build safely.

LAMBETH CONSISTENTLY DELIVERS VALUE
Practical understanding of the construction process has been a special strength of our experienced team of engineers, who have provided clients with economical and sustainable engineering solutions.
Above all, our teams have unrivalled knowledge of the critical issues of cost, time and risk. Lambeth’s commitment to value ensures clients save time and money. We ensure that, from a technical perspective, construction is safe, environmentally friendly and that the increasingly important need today to minimise waste is successfully addressed.
The right design – first timeWorking with Lambeth ensures that the design is right from the outset, so that approvals from local
authorities are secured quickly and construction can proceed quickly and efficiently. Lambeth also
responds quickly to unforeseen site challenges, developing solutions, day or night, to ensure
construction proceeds smoothly. We have demonstrated a talent for providing alternative designs
for tenders, a factor that has been significant in Gammon’s tendering success. This capability is
more important than ever.
Focusing on riskOnly consultants with exposure to what’s going on at a construction site can be truly risk aware.
Lambeth’s tight integration within Gammon means there’s close communication between
contractor and consultant, and that every aspect of risk is fully appraised. Lambeth has the same
goal as Gammon and works closely with all the contractor’s teams covering safety, production,
environment, planning, equipment, testing, instrumentation and monitoring. Lambeth plays a
central role in compiling risk registries and looks at all the key issues, including the risk profiles
of different design options, safety, pollution, work practices and the fluctuating cost of materials.

LAMBETH’S INSTINCT TO INNOVATE
Lambeth industry leadership Lambeth’s team are also highly active members of the engineering
community and are in demand as regular contributors to international
conferences and seminars. Lambeth’s contribution to innovation is reflected
in the many prestigious awards received every year. Accolades include
the Workplace Safety and Health Award for Outstanding Achievement
and Innovation made by the Singapore Government for the Mole project.
The Mole project was also recognised as the Ground Engineering
International Project of the Year.
The Lambeth benchmark Our research and development continually examines and applies new
technologies and new capabilities to meet our clients’ unique needs. In
particular, we focus on advances in materials technology, observational
design, carbon evaluations and aspects related to PPP/PFI projects
such as life-cycle costing, which are already delivering significant financial
and technical benefits to our clients throughout the region. Lambeth also
fosters close relationships with many of the premier engineering research
teams at universities and technical institutes worldwide, to add new
opportunities and efficiencies to our core processes and provide economic
benefits to our clients.

OUR MAJOR PROJECTS
From foundations to high-rises, bridges to tunnels, when it comes to delivering demanding assignments, Lambeth’s experience and success is unrivalled across Southeast Asia.
We have provided design support for most of the high-rise buildings that
Gammon has built. A large number of landmark buildings in Hong Kong are
supported on foundations designed by Lambeth. In the railways and transit
systems sector, Lambeth has handled permanent and temporary works
designs for a number of major railway station and tunnel contracts in
Hong Kong and Southeast Asia.
We take pride in our ability to deliver innovative designs. Gammon’s
reputation for taking on and successfully completing the most challenging
of civil engineering projects is founded on methods designed and developed
by Lambeth. We are a leader in design for major excavations for underground
works in soft ground and rock. Many of our projects are recognised by the
industry as outstanding examples of best practice. In addition, we have been
the originators of complex designs for bridge erection using pre-cast
segments, in-situ balanced cantilever and steel-cable stayed methods
and other techniques.

Mole Removal, Phases 1 and 2 SINGAPORE
Lambeth pioneered design solutions at Marina South to remove a 1.3km tract of seawall, 60m wide, and buried 20m in soft clay. Submerged excavation techniques were used to stabilise the soft clay.
Tamar Development ProjectHONG KONG
Foundations, substructures and temporary works for these landmark buildings that accommodate The Government of Hong Kong SAR were designed by Lambeth. Lambeth also provided design management services for the entire development.
Harbour Area Treatment Scheme, Stage 2AHONG KONG
Temporary works for the construction of this extensive network of sewage treatment shafts and tunnels, formed by drilling and blasting at depths of up to 165m below ground, were designed by Lambeth.
Chinatown MRT Station SINGAPORE
Lambeth has the enviable track record of designing several of Singapore’s most challenging railway projects including Marina Bay Station and Chinatown Station. Experience spanning more than two-decades was applied during the preparation of all design for a station and tunnels on the Downtown Line in historic Chinatown.
Cathay Pacific Air Cargo TerminalHONG KONG
Lambeth introduced innovative designs and mechanised construction techniques to make this project easier to build safely within the constraints of a demanding programme. Building Information Modelling (BIM) was used extensively to assist design and construction planning of this 280,000m2 building.
MTR Kowloon Southern Link and Express Rail LinkHONG KONG
Lambeth designed the temporary works for the underground expansion of the rail network into Tsim Sha Tsui from both the east and west. Projects include West Kowloon Station and tunnels and West Kowloon Terminus approach.
MTR West Island LineHONG KONG
Lambeth was responsible for the design of temporary works for several major contracts on West Island Line. Elements include Kennedy Town Station, Sai Ying Pun Station, Hong Kong University Station, rail tunnels, pedestrian connections and a cavern explosives store. Value engineering by Lambeth delivered significant cost savings.
Woodsville InterchangeSINGAPORE
This challenging underground road project is located at one of the busiest interchanges in Singapore. We developed designs for both temporary works and permanent works.
Tuen Mun Road East and Tolo HighwayHONG KONG
Developing engineering solutions to enable widening of roads and bridges above difficult terrain is nothing new to Lambeth. We piloted an online temporary works management system, developed in-house, on these projects. The system was hugely successful in improving communication and for managing risk, and is now used across our business.
