Soil Investigation
A soil's strength, compressibility and response to water decide how a foundation will perform.
Undisturbed and disturbed samples are taken, sealed and transported following dedicated procedures. In-situ tests measure the soil's behaviour directly, in its natural state.
Laboratory results and field data are analysed together to derive the characteristic and design parameters used in calculation.
Scope of work
- Undisturbed sampling
- In-situ testing: static and dynamic probing, plate load tests
- Laboratory analysis of soil and water samples
- Soil classification
- Aggressivity and corrosion indicators
Deliverables
- Tables of physical and mechanical properties
- Design parameters
- Laboratory test records
