A geotechnical study identifies the characteristics of the soil on which a structure is to be built, in order to ensure its stability, durability and safety. It is a key step in reducing the technical and financial risks associated with ground behavior. At GEOCONSEIL, we carry out geotechnical studies in compliance with standard NF P 94-500, according to the different stages of the project (G1 to G5), based on field investigations, in situ tests and laboratory analyses.

GEOTECHNICAL DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION

Our Presentation

  • Soil investigations for shallow and deep foundations (inverts, footings, piles)
  • Evaluation of bearing capacity, settlements, compaction
  • Determination of optimal foundation depth and type
  • Sizing studies for retaining structures (retaining walls, nailed walls, anchorages)

STABILITY OF GROUNDS AND SLOPES

  • Analysis of landslide or rockfall risks
  • Study of natural or backfilled ground profiles
  • Stability modeling and proposal of reinforcement solutions

GEOTECHNICAL MONITORING DURING CONSTRUCTION

  • Quality control of excavated or backfilled soil
  • Validation of foundation conditions in open excavation
  • Compaction tests, plate bearing capacity, in situ density
  • Geotechnical assistance in the event of unforeseen soil discovery

REHABILITATION AND POST-INJURY DIAGNOSIS

  • Geotechnical investigations following cracks, differential settlements, collapses
  • Proposals for underpinning solutions
  • Expertise in the event of insurance claims
