DE Explosive ordnance in the ground from
Explosive ordnance from the Second World War still poses a potential risk to planned construction projects today. In order to be able to assess this risk and take it into account in further planning, M&P offers its customers pre-exploration of explosive ordnance on the basis of aerial photo analyses. In order to prepare a more meaningful aerial photo evaluation, M&P first has the attack and war events analysed using historical sources and [...]
Cybersecurity - Data protection in the MuP Group
2022 was one of the years in which attacks on critical infrastructure as part of hybrid warfare, as well as attacks on companies by criminal hacker groups, increased. The damage caused by these attacks totals millions of euros worldwide every year. The interface between man and machine via so-called phishing attacks (social engineering) is a particularly [...]
Winter aid - but the right way!
Many of our native songbirds are migratory. Nightingales and black redstarts, for example, leave for warmer climes at the onset of winter. Others stay here. The robin has even become a classic Christmas motif on the British Isles. "Robin" is almost as symbolic of Christmas there as St Nicholas is here. Like other songbirds that spend the winter here [...]
Feasibility study for the remediation of an old landfill site
The approximately 3.8-hectare old landfill is located in the south of Hamburg in the Elbmarsch area. The old landfill was covered up a few years ago to secure it. The area is currently fallow. A subsequent utilisation by a depot is currently being considered. To this end, M&P prepared a variant study on the remediation and utilisation of the old landfill. The variant study was intended to provide a general [...]
Desilting of the rainwater retention basin - Schlick Schlick Hurray, here we go again!
Rainwater retention basins (RRB) are artificial bodies of water that temporarily store large quantities of rainwater. Many foreign particles such as sand, road debris and leaves enter the basin with the discharged water or from the surrounding vegetation, which then settle to the bottom as sediment. Over the years, the sediment becomes continuously thicker. In order to maintain the original retention volume of the basins [...]
Relocation of floors - Cut & Fill
A logistics company is planning the construction of a new logistics centre on an approx. 21 ha arable and pasture area on the BAB 66 motorway near Flieden. The scope of services includes a historical investigation to explain possible subsoil contamination caused by contaminated sites, orientating investigations to assess the legal waste situation and subsoil investigations to assess the subsoil. In addition to the subsoil investigations just described to assess [...]
Bomb funnel! ...or not?
The interpretation of explosive bomb craters is an essential part of aerial image analysis for the preliminary detection of explosive ordnance. How well these objects can be recognised depends primarily on the quality and scale of the available aerial imagery. If both factors are favourable, it is generally possible to identify explosive bomb craters on the basis of their characteristics (ejected material, hollow shape). This is particularly [...]
M&P explores the Alster
"Plan. Decide. Delegate. Tackle. Rethink. Motivate. Giving freedom. Draw boundaries. Be a role model. Showing courage. Stick together. Leading the way. Pulling together. Achieve goals. Sailing." Sailing is advertised as a team-building activity, for example. This was to be tried out on a small scale and so M&P organised an event with all Hamburg members (M&P Ing. / M&P [...]) in October.

Assessment of uneven material distributions in the pile: the "4 out of 5 rule"
Piles of mineral waste can be heterogeneous in composition and exhibit fluctuations in material composition. Partial quantities with high and low pollutant contents can therefore occur side by side in a heap. Sampling must be carried out in such a way that the characteristic features and the variation in the composition of the waste, which are decisive for the choice of disposal route, are recorded. Samples may [...]
