All construction activities require reliable and relevant soil condition data for construction assessment and planning. Assessing soil stability and the risk of landslides or rockfalls requires a thorough knowledge of local and soil conditions. INSTITUT IGH, JSC experts have rich experience, extensive knowledge and sophisticated equipment for conducting field investigations.
Knowing the soil condition is crucial
Substandard field analysis can result in the wrong choice of engineering solutions for foundation construction, wrong design of the foundation, inappropriate and dangerous execution of works on the ground, and causing damage to neighbouring and new objects. Also, it can lead to the construction of massive and unnecessarily expensive foundations.
With today's geophysical technologies being integrated with traditional engineering geological soil investigations (e.g. mapping or exploratory drilling), it is possible to create highly detailed, continuous and comprehensive models for application in many areas.
