Engineering Geological and Geotechnical Investigations
We started from engineering survey projects. That was not just a coincidence: we believe that excellence of the engineering survey is the only reliable foundation for quality design and construction. Our customers know that quality survey data saves time and money during design and construction and ensures confidence during the operation.
Caucasus is a mountainous region with various geo-hazards. Geotechnical investigations and risk mitigation planning guarantee against potential risks that could endanger construction and operation, thus reducing expensive disruptions in future.
We offer the best quality and range geotechnical services in the South Caucasus region. Our services are un-parallel in terms of:
- Range of the services and methods in drilling, in-situ and laboratory testing;
- Quality of the testing, achieved by high-qualified personnel equipped with up to date skills, methodology and instrumentation;
|
The geotechnical studies at GeoEngineering include geotechnical survey, mapping, and soil testing in the following areas:
- Geology;
- Geomorphology;
- Hydrology;
- Ongoing geological processes survey and analysis,
- Soil and water composition survey and
- Consequent forecast for likely geological changes and hazards
