What lies
under your property is as important as what you build above it – especially
when construction is under consideration or there might be contamination
of the soil or ground water. Properly performed geotechnical engineering
leads to improved foundation designs, reduces construction delays,
and aids in the assessment of environmental risks.
Our professional staff excels when it comes to deep foundations and creative design solutions incorporating the use of dewatering systems, driven piles, caissons, drilled piers, mat foundations, sheet piles, shoring and underpinning systems and associated load test programs necessary to confirm design performance.
Our
comprehensive geotechnical recommendations begin with an initial subsurface
investigation to assess underground soil conditions. A complete laboratory
testing program is then conducted in order to determine soil strength
and other soil parameters. A report of our conclusions and recommendations
is then provided to our client for use during the remaining design and
construction effort. During grading, underground installation and
foundation excavation our services are also employed to perform construction
inspection, compaction testing, and foundation observation.
Additional services
provided include installation and monitoring of piezometers and settlement
gauges, slope stability analyses, retaining wall design, drilled
shafts and driven piles analysis, supervision of reinforced
earth construction, cement treated base or lime treated sub-base design,
pavement design.
MatriScope
maintains a fleet of land and marine subsurface exploration equipment,
providing the most cost-effective means to determine conditions. Our
crews are backed by the expertise of our senior engineers and laboratory
technicians. Our comprehensive geotechnical services include:
