Geotechnical Consultancy Services
We offer various geotechnical consultancy. In this section you can find a selection of the most frequently occurring types of consultancy.Our consultants are specialised in the interpretation of test data, such as cone penetration test graphs. Will a steel-reinforced foundation suffice, or will piles need to be used? And which type of pile lends itself best to the location-specific situation? As well as calculating the bearing capacities of a foundation based on steel or piles, those are the questions specifically discussed in our consultancy reports. We always set out to provide complete advice that is characterised by a strong ability to put ourselves in the shoes of all the parties involved. Both technically and economically.
Our expertise in the area of damage and foundation repair is frequently called on. One element of this work involves identifying the cause of damage to existing (historical) buildings. We are also frequently involved in projects aimed at giving a second opinion or as an independent survey office for disasters covered by our area of expertise.
In many inner cities new construction projects are built at locations of demolished buildings. To make optimum use of the space most building plans feature one or two storey subbasements.
It is often necessary to use sheet pile structures in those cases. Sound and complete advice on the completion of projects such as these in urban areas requires theoretical knowledge and ample experience with similar projects.
