Geotechnical
Our in-house geotechnical team offer an extensive range of geotechnical investigation and site classification services. Our geotechnical engineers can advise you of the most relevant investigation methods to suite your site and development, via an obligation-free desk study. Our Geotechnical Engineering services include:
- Geotechnical investigation and reporting
- Site classification
- Shallow and deep foundation design
- Deep excavation design
- Slope and excavation stability assessment
- Shoring and slope stabilisation
- Pavement assessment and earthworks design
- Piezometer installation and monitoring
- Groundwater management
- Pier/pile monitoring and inspections
Furthermore, through industry partnerships, we offer a wide variety of geotechnical testing at NATA accredited laboratory facilities. Our capabilities include:
Soil Classification Testing
