Ground Investigation
After your initial contract ground investigation, our team can deliver an extensive report to inform future stages of development.
Contract Ground Investigation can help uncover vital information about the ground. With our Ground Investigation Reporting, we ensure you receive this information in a succinct, easy-to-understand format that will assist you throughout development. It brings together all the information discovered on site, including laboratory tests and fieldwork results in a comprehensive way, fully compliant with key standards.
Purpose
A ground investigation report is the vital next step from your initial ground investigation. Our reports can break down key findings from those tests, highlighting soil, rock and groundwater characteristics, as well as any issues, such as ground contamination. This keeps your project compliant with regulations, which is necessary when filling out forms and applications throughout development.
This report can then be used to guide your development process further. By identifying issues earlier in the development process, you have more time to modify your plan and ensure they’re resolved.
Understanding how your site will behave during the construction and engineering process will directly inform how later stages will be managed. Design teams need to know what’s possible on the land to establish project scope, foundations and more. By involving us in the process, we can provide this insight.
Process
Here is how we deliver your ground investigation report:
The first step is to complete the different investigations. This ranges from lab testing to trial pitting and monitoring over an extended period. Our report aims to be as comprehensive as possible, highlighting issues found across the surveying process.
Once we have collected the data, we interpret the information to ensure it’s easier for you to understand, while being clear about what the results may mean for your development. Initial results may be presented in scientific or highly technical terms; our interpretation will make them much more understandable.
When you receive your report, it will contain important, factual information, such as various statistics, ensuring you have the exact results from the various tests. In addition, you will receive the interpreted data, examining how potential issues could arise from certain results, such as what land contamination may cause.
