Transportation

Our services in the Transportation market include design and supervision of Bridges, Highways, and Ports.

Bridges
We have expertise in planning, concept and detailed design of major interchanges, bridges, flyovers, viaducts, underpasses, culverts, submerged RCC service tunnels, and hangars. We have successfully delivered projects in Pakistan and the Middle East.

We have carried out independent checking of design for various structures such as multi-span post-tensioned box girder bridges for our clients. Our design team comprises of well qualified and experienced engineers and CAD technicians who have the ability to use latest design software.

We are fully conversant with the local as well as international design standards including BS5400, BS8110, BD37/01, AASHTO, ACI, and WPHC1967. We have been delivering remote design services in bridge design to our clients in the Middle East since 2005. Our knowledge of the applicable international design standards followed by clients in different countries enables us to deliver projects without going through a learning process of understanding country specific design requirements.

Highways
HPK has expertise in the design of urban and inter-urban road networks as well as rural highways. These highways and roads traverse a variety of terrain from flat desert plains to mountain ranges and from dense urban settings to new developments. Our highway design expertise embraces projects of all sizes and complexities. We have experience of delivering projects in Pakistan, UAE, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia.

 

We offer complete design solution in road including pavement, hydrology, geotechnical, structural, materials and electrical disciplines, keeping in view the operational and maintenance needs and environmental compliance requirements of the project. Our design capabilities include:

 

 

  • horizontal and vertical alignment design using Mx Road and Mx Site (Add-in)
  • use of Auto Turn for design review on sharp curves, roundabouts and loops
  • pavement design for new construction as well as rehabilitation
  • road signs and markings for users’ safety
  • design of street lighting
  • design of road detours and diversions and protection measures


Ports
Ports play a pivotal role in global cargo transportation, and Pakistan's coastline gets its due share. Karachi is home to Port of Karachi and Port Qasim, and then Gwadar has followed. Together with its partners, HPK has provided a wide range of design, and construction services for its clients. Our ports' expertise spans from early advisory work and feasibility studies, to full design and construction management for all phases of port and harbour projects.
