Description

A geotechnical investigation is a critical process in the field of civil engineering that assesses the physical properties of soil, rock, and groundwater at a proposed construction site. This investigation provides essential data to inform the design and construction of structures, ensuring they are safe, stable, and sustainable. Key Components of a Geotechnical Investigation: 1. Site Exploration. 2.Soil Testing and Analysis. 3, Groundwater Table and Drainage. 4. Geotechnical Recommendations. 5. Risk Assessment and Site Safety Applications of Geotechnical Investigation: 1. Building Foundations. 2. Road and Pavement Design. 3. Retaining Walls and Dams. 4. Environmental Studies. In short, Geotechnical investigations form the foundation of safe and effective construction practices, providing invaluable insights into subsurface conditions that influence every aspect of the building process.
