Welcome

Welcome to the website for Jon Knights Materials Consulting Limited (JKMC)

Independent consultancy providing specialist advice on the design, selection, use and management of concrete technology and natural construction materials in civil engineering and construction, for both new-build and existing structures.

As an experienced materials engineer and concrete technologist, I have extensive knowledge and understanding in the selection, specification and use of natural construction materials.

This expertise is often a differentiator in projects and use of expert knowledge in niche skills can benefit your project and save costs long-term or mitigate further cost over-runs:

  • key technical inputs on projects – concrete technology advice, durability design and protection, early thermal assessment, specification, materials selection, QA
  • where a technical edge is necessary, for example, for bid purposes – e.g. tender designs – understanding the durability design, construction methods and buildability of concrete structures for a project and designing accordingly
  • troubleshooting and problem-solving  – e.g. condition survey and/or forensic investigation, concrete technology advice, low concrete strength, poor workmanship, cracking, use of specialist materials and methods

The pages within hopefully give an appreciation of some of the problems and solutions associated with concrete and materials technology.  Please feel free to browse the site on specific topics.Click here to access Capability Statement Summary
