Geotechnical Field Investigation

Essential Role of Geotechnical Consulting in Construction

At Big Apple Group, we understand the pivotal role geotechnical consulting plays in constructing durable and safe buildings, roads, bridges, tunnels, and other critical structures. A thorough geotechnical survey, or geo tech survey, forms the cornerstone of any successful construction project. By conducting in-depth geotechnical soil testing and ground investigations, we pave the way for cost-effective foundation designs and minimize construction delays that often arise from unexpected subterranean conditions.

Advanced Equipment and Extensive Facilities

Our extensive array of land and marine subsurface exploration equipment, complemented by our advanced laboratory and office facilities, enables us to offer a comprehensive suite of material testing and inspection solutions. Our capabilities extend beyond standard procedures, encompassing specialized tests like compaction testing and pull testing. Our fleet of fully equipped exploration crews, boasting drill rigs adaptable to various carriers, ensures unparalleled access to diverse site conditions, be it on terra firma or aquatic environments.
