Geotechnical Department

1.1. Soil Investigation
  • Geotechnical investigations under different site conditions such as weather, location, and time limitation.
  • Carried out the investigation of Boreholes by using different drilling techniques to significant depths based on soil type.
  • Carried out of the SPT in parallel with the drilling process on different soil layers.
  • Geotechnical field description for the soil profile and water table identification.
  • Extraction of disturbed and undisturbed soil samples at different depths.

 

 

         

1.2. Field Tests

 

  • Standard Penetration Test.
