Engineering and geological surveys

Engineering and geological surveys are a set of studies aimed at studying geological, hydrogeological and geotechnical conditions of a construction site. They allow one to determine the characteristics of soils, groundwater levels, the presence of possible geological risks (landslides, carsts, seismic activity, etc.), as well as predict changes that may occur during the operation of a building or structure.

What are engineering and geological surveys for?

  • Justification of design decisions – helps to determine the type of foundation, the need for soils strengthening or drainage systems.
  • Accident prevention – allows one to identify potential hazards, such as ground movements or subsidence.
  • Cost savings – accurate soil data allows one to optimize design solutions, avoiding unnecessary costs for strengthening of foundation.
  • Compliance with regulations – surveys are required to get a building permit released.

Main stages of engineering and geological surveys:

  • The preliminary stage - data collection, analysis of archive materials, and study of terrain maps.
  • Field work – drilling wells, sampling of soil and water, geophysical research.
  • Laboratory studies – determination of physical and mechanical properties of soils, chemical analysis of water.
  • Desk processing is the preparation of reports, maps, diagrams, conclusions, and recommendations for design.

Engineering and geological surveys are an important stage of any construction, from private homes to large industrial facilities, as they ensure the safety and durability of structures under construction.
