Geotechnical Investigation in Bahrain. Quality You Can Trust

Q: Types of Geotechnical Investigations?

1. Site Surveys Preliminary site surveys involve evaluating the physical features of the land, including topography, vegetation, and existing structures. This step provides context for further investigation. 2. Soil Sampling Soil samples are collected from various depths using drilling techniques, such as boring or augering. These samples are then analyzed in laboratories to determine their composition and properties. 3. In-Situ Testing In-situ tests, such as the Standard Penetration Test (SPT), Cone Penetration Test (CPT), and Vane Shear Test, are conducted to assess soil strength and behavior directly at the site. 4. Laboratory Testing Once soil samples are collected, laboratory testing determines various properties, including grain size distribution, moisture content, atterberg limits, compressive strength, and permeability.
