Soil Investigation

Construction projects require careful and thorough planning because they can have a major impact on their surroundings. Whether you’re constructing a road or a building, it all starts with the foundation. Since the foundation holds the entire structure, it is of the utmost importance that its ground is good. This is where soil investigation plays a vital role that will enable you to plan your foundation work properly and precisely.

Soil investigation, also called geotechnical investigation, represents a method of determining physical properties of soil at a construction site. This procedure is done with the aim of establishing whether the soil properties and characteristics need to be improved or not.

Not until the soil samples are analyzed can a construction project start. Soil investigation entails the application of several different methods and represents an essential part of the site preparation projects. The results of this below-ground investigation can affect the development of the construction project.
