Geotechnical studies
Objectives of the geotechnical study
The study aims to determine the bearing capacity of the soil, the expected subsidence, the properties of soil layers and the appropriate depth of foundation, determining the level of groundwater if found at the site, a description of the surface of the general site’s soil, as well as a description of soil layers over the entire depth of the investigations, the results of experiments and field and laboratory tests, and the quality and properties of the backfill soil. The quality of concrete used in foundations, technical recommendations and necessary engineering proposals.
