Geotechnical Investigations

Geospatial services

Our geotechnical investigation services deliver critical borehole data collection and geophysical surveys to assess soil stability and subsurface conditions. We provide the definitive foundation design data needed for safe, cost-effective construction.

Ground Truth Intelligence in Days, Not Assumptions

Our geotechnical investigation services are built on decades of ground engineering expertise, deploying an integrated methodology that spans rotary and percussion drilling, Cone Penetration Testing (CPT/CPTu), Standard Penetration Testing (SPT), in-situ testing, geophysical surveys, and accredited laboratory analysis to precisely characterize soil, rock, and groundwater conditions across any site, terrain, or geology.

What sets us apart is not just the data we acquire — it is the intelligence we extract from it. Our geotechnical engineers deliver fully classified subsurface datasets with clear, actionable recommendations that directly support your foundation design, earthworks strategy, and ground improvement decisions. Every report we produce is engineered to protect your design assumptions, de-risk your construction methodology, and defend your project economics against the uncertainties that derail projects and inflate costs.

We mobilize fast, work with precision, and deliver interpreted geotechnical reports in days — because the ground truth your project depends on should never be the reason progress waits.

How We Investigate the Ground: Integrated Site Characterization

Geotechnical Drilling

Our approach combines rotary core drilling and percussion/auger drilling to obtain high-quality data essential for design and analysis.
Through diamond-bit rotary core drilling, we recover continuous core samples from soil and rock formations,
allowing for precise lithological logging, discontinuity mapping, and detailed laboratory testing.
In softer overburden soils, we utilize cable percussion (shell and auger) and hollow-stem auger
drilling methods for rapid borehole advancement.

In-Situ Testing Techniques

We conduct comprehensive in-situ testing to evaluate soil behavior and engineering properties
directly within the ground. Our methods include Cone Penetration Testing (CPT/CPTu) and Standard
Penetration Testing (SPT), both providing valuable data for geotechnical design and analysis.
All CPT and SPT results are energy-corrected (N₆₀) and normalized for overburden pressure ((N₁)₆₀) in accordance with
ASTM D1586 and BS EN ISO 22476-3 standards.

Geophysical Ground Profiling

Non-invasive subsurface imaging using seismic refraction/MASW, electrical resistivity tomography (ERT),
and ground penetrating radar (GPR) — providing continuous 2D and 3D ground profiles between boreholes.
Geophysics bridges the gap between discrete borehole data points, identifying lateral variability,
buried structures, voids, and groundwater interfaces across the full site footprint.

Accredited Laboratory Testing: Data You Can Design On

Every soil and rock sample undergoes systematic laboratory testing in our accredited facilities — delivering
the engineering parameters your designers need with full traceability,
repeatability, and compliance with international standards.
All laboratory testing complies with BS 1377, ASTM D-series, BS EN ISO 17892,
and AASHTO standards.

What We Deliver: Actionable Ground Intelligence

Factual Geotechnical Reports

Comprehensive documentation of all field investigation activities — borehole logs, CPT profiles, in-situ test results,
and laboratory test certificates presented in accordance with BS 5930, BS EN ISO 14688/14689, and AGS digital data format.
Factual reports provide the auditable, uninterpreted record of ground conditions encountered.

3D Ground Models

Three-dimensional geological and geotechnical models integrating borehole data, CPT profiles,
geophysical surveys, and topographic information into interactive digital ground representations.
3D ground models enable visualization of stratigraphic variability, identification of geotechnical risk zones,
and direct integration with BIM environments for clash detection and construction planning.

Geotechnical Design Parameters

Characteristic and design values for bearing capacity, shear strength, deformation modulus,
consolidation parameters, and hydraulic conductivity — derived from statistical analysis of field and laboratory
data in accordance with Eurocode 7 (BS EN 1997) partial factor methodology.
Parameters are presented with clear justification, sensitivity analysis, and uncertainty assessment.

Digital Data Deliverables

All investigation data delivered in AGS digital format alongside traditional PDF reports — enabling
direct import into geotechnical analysis software (Plaxis, GeoStudio, Rocscience), BIM platforms,
and GIS environments. Digital-first delivery eliminates manual data entry,
reduces transcription errors, and accelerates your engineering workflows.
