Description

The Environment Agency require a series of tribology tests to be carried out on samples of their stock of temporary defence barriers and kentledge blocks. These tests build upon the results of a previous set of tests carried out in November 2021 and have the desired outcome of better understanding the coefficient of friction of a variety of surfaces in scenarios likely to be encountered during barrier deployment. The results of this testing will ultimately inform the amount of kentledge required for future deployment of the barriers.

To apply please respond to the attached Invitation to Quote and associated documents. Email your response to david.collins@environment-agency.gov.uk. Tenders to be received no later than 17:00 on May 23rd 2022.
