Geotechnical Investigations are performed to obtain data about the subsurface soil and rock conditions of the proposed development site. It helps to understand the foundation requirements for the construction of any new infrastructures, underground utilities, basement structures, retention systems etc. These investigations are essential for design and structural engineers to recommend design criteria for the construction and design approach for each project.
After geotechnical investigation, some geotechnical criteria are developed regarding foundations, excavation, retaining walls, site drainage, and site grading. These criteria help design and civil/structural engineers to anticipate and calculate the load-bearing capacities and lateral forces on various structural elements of construction like columns, slabs, beams, plinth and walls.
If you are looking for geotechnical investigation for your upcoming project, consult with Oz Geos. We have highly experienced professional Geotechnical Engineers, Engineering Geologist who can provide all kinds of geotechnical engineering solutions in reasonable time frame and competitive rate. We have a cumulative experience of over 25 years and working across Australia, New Zealand, Europe, UK, Middle East and USA. All investigations, reporting, interpretations, calculations and modelling are performed by our in-house team, so that quality can be controlled and data can be safely secured with our own cloud-based storage space. We use top of the line software for our reporting, analysis and modelling purposes and we also practise peer reviewing prior to the report being issued to our valuable Clients.
