Expert Geotechnical Investigations for Buildings, Dams, Roads, and More

OUR SERVICES




Geotechnical investigations
  • Geological appraisal of sites
  • Soil borings & Rock drilling
  • Static & dynamic cone penetration
  • Static & Cyclic plate load test
  • Field permeability & percolations
  • Pressuremeter test
  • In situ vane shear test

Site investigation
Our professional engineers are experienced in the technical requirements for an effective site investigation and can guide you through each stage of the process, ensuring a technically robust and cost-effective solution.
  • Phase 1: Desk study: the desk study generally includes a visual inspection (walkover survey) of the site and its surrounding area.
  • Phase 2: Site investigation: we ensure that the site investigation is designed and implemented correctly and covers both geotechnical and environmental concerns where necessary.

Laboratory testing of soil and aggregates
We perform testing on construction materials for specification conformance consideration.
  • Ability to establish project laboratories
  • Engineering classification
  • Liquid limit, plastic limit, plastic index tests, and linear shrinkage to classify fine-grained soils and other geotechnical correlations
  • Particle size analysis (by sieve analysis for a coarse-grained fraction of soils, by hydrometer test for a fine-grain fraction of soils)
  • Optimum moisture content (OMC) AND Maximum dry density (MDD)
  • Soaked CBR value for pen surfacing and/or road material
  • Permeability tests
  • Drilling
  • Etc.
