Soil Boring Test

Soil boring and geotechnical investigation with our own drilling rig, giving structural engineers the subsurface data they need to design foundations.

Soil Boring & Geotechnical Investigation

Before a foundation can be designed, the engineer needs to know what lies beneath the site. We drill boreholes with our own soil boring rig, take soil samples at set depths and carry out Standard Penetration Tests (SPT) as we go.

What you receive

  • Borehole logs showing the soil layers encountered at each depth
  • SPT results along each borehole
  • Soil samples for laboratory testing
  • A geotechnical investigation report for the structural engineer
