Geotechnical Site Investigations

Geotechnical Site Investigations

Geotechnical Site Investigations are a critical step in the planning and development of any commercial construction project.

Commercial/non-residential projects often involve larger structures, heavier loads, and more intricate engineering solutions. As a result, geotechnical investigations for commercial sites are more thorough and involve a wider scope of analyses to meet these complex demands.

The results are compiled into a comprehensive geotechnical report, providing clear recommendations for foundation design, construction methods, and identifying any potential challenges.

With a range of drilling and testing equipment at hand, we can complete investigations for a range of commercial, industrial, institutional and educational projects.

From light towers, pavilions, office buildings, factories and schools we have the expertise to get the job done.
