Focus on challenging developments in London
Since formation, WHP has grown into a 70 strong consultancy of engineers and technicians based out of offices in Esher, Leeds, Bathgate and Bristol.
WHP has worked on nearly 3,000 projects, many of which have been focused on challenging developments in central London including deep basements and the retention and stabilisation of many facades in Regent Street, as well as national road, rail and water infrastructure projects.
WHP operates nationwide and has also gained international recognition carrying out construction design work on projects in Hong Kong and Myanmar.
Keltbray’s executive chairman, Brendan Kerr, said: “Stuart’s contribution to the growth and professional development of the structural and geotechnical engineering industry in the UK has been significant.
“I want to thank him for the strong leadership, innovative thinking and quality of service he has provided to the Group and its clients during his time with Keltbray.
“On behalf of all my colleagues, I’d also like to wish him a long and happy retirement, safe in the knowledge we will still be able to draw on his considerable knowledge and experience as an advisor to Keltbray and its clients.”
