Engineering Design Department your support for Naue geosynthetic systems — as a partner to the design team
The Naue Engineering Design Department (EDD) brings together the technical expertise around our geosynthetic systems. From reviewing the tender through design and BIM-ready installation planning to digital as-built documentation, our application engineers support your project with product-specific know-how — as a reliable partner alongside designers, contractors and project owners.
Our role is clear: we complement the design, we do not replace it. The EDD provides the product-specific knowledge of our systems and works in support of the design team. This creates certainty on all sides — for the design, for the works and for the result.

EDD services in detail

Technical support from our application engineers
Direct, straightforward access to our applications specialists — exactly when you need it. Our contribution starts with the product: we design and optimise our systems and provide the design team with well-founded input.
- Short communication paths: a dedicated contact instead of a call queue.
- Review of tender documents for plausibility and potential variations.
- Preparation of potential variation quotations based on the project documents.
- Design and dimensioning of temporary works for haul roads, laydown areas and working platforms.
- Review of the quantity take-off to safeguard cost-efficiency and buildability.
- Support with connections, overlaps, joints and penetrations — detailing and design.
- Project-specific installation plans with notes on the construction sequence and offcut and quantity optimisation — BIM-ready with IFC and CSV interfaces.

Product documentation
All verifications for our products — complete, project-specific and audit-proof.
- Provision of all delivery notes.
- Provision of Declarations of Performance (DoP).
- Project-specific provision of Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs).
- Provision of the approval certificates and quality-assurance documents required for the project.
- Our specialists liaise with internal and third-party inspectors.

Product and consulting liability
Reliability that goes beyond delivery.
- Naue holds direct product liability for the products and provides immediate, direct support if difficulties arise.
- Our sales and application engineers advise you on questions and issues and work with you to find the best solution.
- Where we take on design services for our systems, we stand behind them with our consulting liability.

Training and on-site instruction
So the quality reaches the site, not just the plan.
- Provision of detailed installation instructions and telephone support.
- On-site installation briefing by our specialists.
- Provision of a supervisor for correct installation.

The finished structure — documented digitally, transparently and future-proof.
- Survey of the formation level and/or the installed works.
- Preparation of 3D as-built plans.
- Extension of the 3D as-built plans into a structure logbook with installation information, delivery and product documentation (IFC), data from the site app and tracking information.
- Incorporation of third-party material and adjacent components/information into an as-built plan.
Challenge, solution, result
| Challenge | Solution by the EDD | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Tender unclear or with potential for variations | Review of the documents and preparation of potential variation quotations | Costing certainty and robust foundations for design and tender. |
| System design and detailing open | Design of temporary works, connections, overlaps, joints and penetrations | Correct, product-specific verified solutions — provided in support of the design. |
| Installation, offcuts and quantities not optimised | Project-specific installation plans, BIM-ready (IFC/CSV) | Material efficiency, a clear construction sequence, less offcut waste. |
| Structure not digitally traceable | 3D as-built plans and a structure logbook with delivery and product documentation | Audit-proof, digital documentation for operation and verification. |
Who the EDD works for
For designers and engineering consultancies
We provide the product-specific bases, designs and verifications for our systems — as input that supports and accelerates your design. Overall design responsibility remains with you; our product knowledge is yours to use.
For contractors and installers
From reviewing the tender through installation plans to on-site instruction — we make sure our systems are installed economically and correctly.
For project owners and clients
You receive documented quality, product liability from a single source and a digitally traceable structure.

Why the Engineering Design Department?
- First-hand product expertise: no one knows Naue systems better than our application engineers.
- A partner to the design team, not a competitor: we work in support of the design rather than replacing it.
- Digital throughout: BIM-ready, IFC/CSV, site app and 3D structure logbook.
- Responsibility included: product liability and consulting liability for our systems.
- A single point of contact: from tender to as-built documentation.

Frequently asked questions
The EDD brings together Naue’s technical expertise around our geosynthetic systems — from reviewing the tender through design and BIM-ready installation planning to digital as-built documentation. It supports projects as product-related application engineering.
No. The EDD complements the design and works in support of it. We provide product-specific engineering, designs and verifications for our systems; overall design responsibility — such as object and structural design — remains with the designer.
Technical support from application engineers, complete product documentation, product and consulting liability, training and on-site instruction, and digital as-built documentation.
Naue holds direct product liability for the products. Where Naue takes on design services for our systems, it additionally stands behind them with consulting liability.
Survey, 3D as-built plans and their extension into a structure logbook with installation, delivery and product documentation (IFC), data from the site app and tracking information; third-party material can also be incorporated.
Yes. The Engineering Design Department (EDD) supports national and international projects; project-specific requirements are agreed during the design phase.
