Geotechnical Investigation
SOIL EXPLORATION SERVICE
SOIL EXPLORATION SERVICE
Our Geotechnical Team works on complex foundation problems, underground construction, ground improvement, geo-environmental engineering, off shore and on shore problems of soil mechanics and rock mechanics, complex stability and landslide mitigation.
Soil Tests for construction of buildings or any structure is the 1st step in construction planning to understand the suitability of soil for proposed construction work. Design of foundation is based on soil. Soil which is responsible for allowing the stress coming from the structure. If soil shouldn’t test correctly then the whole building or structure is damaged or collapsed or leaned like leaning Tower of Pisa.
The quality of soil is judged by analyzing those properties which limit a planned use. Various soil and site factors need to be determined in order to check the limitations before constructing a building or a structure.
