Geological and geotechnical assessment

Mapping and assessment of terrain, slopes and rock, with geological and geotechnical reports for design and submissions.

What it tells the engineer

Geological work explains the ground a project sits on: terrain and slope mapping, rock mass and discontinuity mapping, kinematic and rock slope stability checks, geohazard assessment, and interpretative reports that tie the field and laboratory data into design parameters.

When it is used

Hillside and highland development, cut slopes and quarries, slope failures and forensic studies, dam and reservoir sites, and authority submissions that need a geological or geotechnical report.

How a job runs

  1. 1

    Brief

    Your site, the structure and what the design needs to know.

  2. 2

    Plan

    Test locations, methods and the reporting you need.

  3. 3

    Fieldwork

    Testing, drilling and sampling on site by our field team.

  4. 4

    Report

    Logs, plots and test results for your engineer.

Typical outputs

  • Geological and terrain maps
  • Slope inventory and mapping records
  • Geohazard and slope stability assessment
  • Geotechnical interpretative report

Questions

Who signs the reports?

Reports are prepared and endorsed by a registered professional geologist or engineer as the submission requires.
