A geotechnical investigation is an essential process that identifies potential risks and challenges associated with a construction site. This process involves a comprehensive assessment of the soil condition, rock formation, and groundwater levels to determine their suitability for construction. As a leading consulting engineering firm, we also analyze the soil to determine potential hazards that could impact the stability of the structures.
Our geotechnical evaluation involves the following three phases:
SEG own and operate it own B-47 Mobil drill rig to have more control on the quality and the turn around time for the soil testing. Soil sampling is performed by advancing test borings using a drill rig. The number and depth of the borings depend on the geological formation, the proposed development, and the size and scope of the project. Soil samples retrieved from the borings are extruded in the field for later testing in our laboratory.
The soil is extruded in the field, and the boring logs are transported to our lab for testing and classification. Applicable ASTM standards test soil samples, and the boring records are edited as needed.
The soil report we deliver includes valuable information for the site development. Typically, these reports consist of the following:
Our comprehensive soil test process thoroughly evaluates soil and rock properties, including particle size, density, permeability, and shear strength. During this process, our team evaluates the soil to ensure that its properties meet the requirements of a project. Follow these steps to test the ground of your project:
