Geotechnical Investigation

Know the ground first

What this service covers

Most foundation surprises are investigation problems, not construction problems. We drill, sample and test the ground before anyone commits to a depth — and we report it in a form a structural designer can work from directly.

Rotary and percussion rigs, standard penetration testing, undisturbed sampling and permeability tests, with laboratory work through NABL-accredited partners and interpretation by our own engineers.

How we do it

The sequence on site

Written down before mobilisation, so nobody discovers the plan halfway through the dig.

01

Plan the grid

Borehole positions and depths set against the footprint and the loads it will carry.

02

Drill & sample

Rotary or percussion boring with SPT at intervals and undisturbed samples in cohesive strata.

03

Laboratory testing

Classification, shear strength, consolidation and chemical tests through accredited labs.

04

Interpret & report

Borelogs, strata sections, bearing capacity, settlement and a clear set of recommendations.

Where it is used

Typical applications

Some of the situations clients bring this service to us for.

New build feasibility

Establishing founding levels and foundation type before a design is committed.

Deep basements

Water table, permeability and strata data that set the retention method.

Infrastructure corridors

Borehole lines along a metro alignment, bridge or elevated corridor.

Existing structures

Investigations for extensions, additional floors or distress diagnosis.

Projects delivered

On record

Every claim backed by a document

Verticality logs, cube results, test certificates and daily safety sheets are collected as the work happens and issued weekly — not assembled the week before handover.

Frequently asked

Geotechnical Investigation — common questions

Something else on your mind? Call the office — an engineer answers, not a call centre.

It depends on footprint and load variability — typically one per 1,000 m² with a minimum of three, deepened until strata are consistent.

Fieldwork is usually a week; the interpreted report follows 7–10 days after the laboratory results.

Both. You get raw logs and test sheets plus bearing capacity, settlement estimates and recommendations signed by our engineer.

Yes — compact rigs, night working and clean-up regimes for investigations inside operating premises.
