INVESTIGATION

Geotechnical investigations reveals the characteristics and properties of the subsoil and its different strata.

This understanding is essential for the proper dimensioning of a project and consequent success in its execution.

SITE INVESTIGATION

One of the main and most captivating characteristics of the soils is their heterogeneity. Unlike other areas of civil engineering, in geotechnics we deal with constant uncertainties.

The passion for geotechnics and the understanding of the behavior of different types of soils and rocks made us look for different site investigation tools, from different suppliers. We therefore offer multiple tools to our customers such as: 

  • PIEZOCONE TESTS (CPTu);
  • MARCHETTI FLAT DILATOMETER TEST (DMT);
  • SEISMIC TESTS (Vs and Vp);
  • VANE TESTS;
  • MÉNARD PRESSIOMETER TESTS (PMT);
  • SPT SOUNDINGS (SPT);
  • ROCK CORING AND SAMPLING
