Civil & Structural Infrastructure

Integrated civil infrastructure for mining environments

Integrated INfrastructure

Engineering the foundations that critical operations depend on

Civil and structural infrastructure is crucial to every mining operation, typically comprising the workshops, services and associated facilities necessary for ensuring safe and efficient site operations.

Wilshaw offers integrated civil engineering solutions that consider structural, mechanical, and operational requirements from the very beginning. This approach leads to site civils that are not only practical to construct but also suitable for its intended purpose and engineered for long-term usage.

Mine Site Infrastructure Expertise

Supporting mining operations with necessary civil and structural infrastructure

Integrated civil and structural engineering for surface and underground mining environments.


Our teams design and engineer civil and structural infrastructure that supports mining operations. This includes workshop slabs, equipment foundations, service facilities, drainage systems, evaporation ponds, and essential underground infrastructure.

Each solution is tailored to consider operational loading, constructability, maintenance access, and regulatory requirements, ensuring that the infrastructure performs reliably throughout its service life.

From site constraints to buildable engineering solutions

Practical engineering that integrates civil and structural requirements.


Every project starts with a thorough understanding of how the infrastructure will function within the broader mining environment. Our engineers evaluate the use case; including operational loads, equipment needs, environmental conditions, and potential future expansion.

This assessment informs the creation of coordinated engineering documentation that ensures safe construction, efficient installation and practical function.
