Geotechnical Testing & Investigation

active / construction

From project conception through construction and throughout the operation and maintenance phase, geotechnical investigations are designed to provide the level of information appropriate to the project development stage. Geotechnical investigations are performed to evaluate those geologic, seismologic, and soil conditions that affect the safety, cost effectiveness, design, and execution of a proposed engineering project. Insufficient geotechnical investigations, faulty interpretation of results, or failure to portray results in a clearly understandable manner may contribute to undesirable results. These may include inappropriate designs, delays in construction schedules, costly construction changes, and post-construction remedial work. An annual contract will be used for these services. The scope of this project includes: Collecting and analyzing data Site conditions and soil sampling Testing of rocks and soils to determine strength, compaction, moisture content, etc. Pressure tests Drilling, boring and rock coring Other geotechnical services as needed
