ENGINEERING SERVICES
- Work scope preparation for geotechnical services based on discussions with our clients and the project proposed.
- Foundation type recommendations (shallow spread footings, drilled shafts, driven pilings, micropiles, push-piles, soil nailing, rammed aggregate piers, etc.) based on the soil and bedrock conditions encountered and the proposed structures.
- Soil parameters for shallow and deep foundations.
- Geotechnical parameters for Load Resistance Factor Design (LRFD).
- Lateral load factors and analyses.
- Retaining wall analyses including global stability analyses.
- Seismic Site Class determination.
- Alternatives for spread footings or deep piling foundations.
- Settlement calculations and time-rate of settlement based on laboratory consolidation test results and the proposed structure loading.
- Permeability calculations for soils or bedrock based on slug test data obtained from monitoring wells and piezometers or double-rig inflitration tests.
- Pavement design and life cycle cost analysis (LCCA).
- Pressuremeter testing and related data interpretation.
- Subgrade soil observations, testing and evaluations for construction projects.
- Site explorations to determine presence of environmental contamination (Phase 2).
- Soil and water sampling for chemical analyses.
