Soil Testing

Stronger Foundations. Safer Structures.

Geotechnical Investigation

Know what's under the plot before you design the foundation

Soil Testing determines the bearing capacity, soil type and water table depth of a plot, so the structural engineer can size the foundation correctly instead of guessing on the safe side — which usually means over-building and overspending.

We take bore samples at the corners and center of the plot, test them for bearing capacity and composition, and hand over a written report your engineer can design against.
