Subsurface soil and rock exploration services for all types of construction works, our main objective is quality in service which ensures the value for your safety and money. We are providing a high quality service in field subsurface soil investigation, in-situ testing’s and well equipped soil mechanics lab for laboratory testing’s on soil and rock samples.
Soil and rock exploration was carried out using borehole drilling method includes rotary drilling, percussion drilling, hand auger with hand operated, power operated and hydraulic machineries, followed by disturbed and undisturbed soil sample collection and rock sample collection.
One of the soil exploration method using calyx type rotary drilling rig for a 100mm to 150mm diameter borehole with SPT at 1.50m interval and soil sample collection and NX size rock sample collection.
Most commonly used in-situ test for soil sample collection and also to find the Safe Bearing Capacity of the soil at the site. This test can be followed by IS 2131_1981 standards and the test is conducted to a deeper depth at frequent interval of 1.50m to obtain the hard strata of soil or rock layer.
Distributed and undistributed samples of soil are collected, preserved and mobilized immediately to the laboratory for testing
Rock cores will be preserved in core boxes and mobilized immediately to the Laboratory for testing.
