Geotechnical investigations
The number everything else starts from: what the ground can carry, and how deep.
Borings, lab tests and bearing capacity, with a foundation recommendation.

What we do
Service scope
We drill borings and run lab tests to establish the soil profile, the allowable bearing capacity and expected settlement, along with the recommended foundation type.
The report covers the soil's chemical aggressiveness toward concrete, which is what later decides the cement type. Skipping that data point is cheap on the report and very expensive ten years down the road.
