  1. Geotechnical Investigation – Land & Water

We undertake onshore and offshore geotechnical investigations to establish subsurface conditions, assess soil and rock properties, and provide reliable inputs for foundation design.

Subsurface Investigation

  • Standard Penetration Test (SPT)
  • Trial Pits
  • Electrical Cone Penetration Test (eCPTu)
  • Rock Pressuremeter Test
  • Field Vane Shear Test

In-Situ Testing

  • In-Situ Permeability Test
  • Field CBR Test
  • Plate Load Test
  • Cyclic Plate Load Test
  • Block Vibration Test
  • Pile Load Test
  • Electrical Resistivity Test (ERT)
  • Cross-Hole Seismic Test
    1. Laboratory Testing

NABL Accredited Testing Laboratory
Our NABL-accredited laboratory provides reliable mechanical and chemical testing services for soil, rock, and ground water.

  1. Soil Testing

Index and Classification tests

  • Moisture Content
  • Sieve Analysis
  • Particle Size Analysis by Hydrometer
  • Specific Gravity
  • Liquid Limit
  • Plastic Limit
  • Shrinkage Limit
  • Differential Free Swell Index

            We conduct soil index and classification tests to determine the physical characteristics and    engineering properties of soil for geotechnical assessment and design.

Compaction & CBR Tests

  • Light Compaction Test
  • Heavy Compaction Test
  • California Bearing Ratio (CBR) – Soaked
  • California Bearing Ratio (CBR) – Unsoaked

            Compaction and CBR testing is carried out to evaluate soil compaction characteristics   and subgrade strength for foundation, road, pavement, and earthwork applications

Shear Strength & Strength Tests

  • Unconfined Compressive Strength Test
  • Direct Shear Test
  • Triaxial Compression Test – UU
  • Triaxial Compression Test – CD
  • Laboratory Vane Shear Test

            Strength and shear testing is performed to determine the engineering strength   parameters required for foundation, slope, retaining structure, and other geotechnical           designs.

Consolidation & Swelling Tests

  • Consolidation Test
  • Swelling Pressure Test

These tests evaluate soil compressibility, settlement characteristics, and swelling behaviour for foundation and earthwork design.

Permeability Tests

  • Constant Head Permeability Test
  • Variable Head Permeability Test
  1. Rock Testing

Physical Properties

  • Moisture Content
  • Density
  • Porosity
  • Water Absorption

Strength Properties

  • Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS)
  • Point Load Index
  • Tensile Strength

Our rock testing services determine the physical and mechanical properties of rock for foundation, excavation, infrastructure, and rock engineering applications.

  1. Chemical Testing

Soil Chemical Testing

  • pH Value
  • Chloride Content
  • Total Soluble Sulphates
  • Organic Content

Groundwater Chemical Testing

  • pH Value
  • Chloride Content
  • Sulphates
  1. Geotechnical Data Analysis and Reporting
