Case Study: Sir Robert McAlpine achieves faster, more confident drainage design with Causeway Flow

Sir Robert McAlpine uses Causeway's Design Solutions to Increase Design Efficiencies and Provide Confidence in Drainage Schemes

Sir Robert McAlpine, a large UK building and civil engineering company, sought to enhance its in-house design capabilities and increase efficiencies, particularly when tackling complex drainage design scenarios and time-consuming design changes on projects. They partnered with vendor Causeway Technologies and implemented their Causeway Flow drainage design software to address these challenges.

The solution from Causeway provided live 2D and 3D visualization of drainage networks, giving engineers greater confidence in their designs. Crucially, it automated and sped up the process of making design changes. According to the engineers, an adjustment that previously took five minutes was reduced to less than one minute, resulting in significant time savings for their clients. Causeway's technology enabled Sir Robert McAlpine to deliver more innovative and cost-effective solutions.
