Site investigation
Geological survey and interpretation to identify geotechnical risk before design and construction.
Seabed drilling, sampling and in-situ testing for energy, ports and marine infrastructure — supporting foundation, pipeline and cable-route engineering.
We cover the full geotechnical cycle with specialized personnel and latest-generation instrumented equipment, in compliance with national and international standards.
Geological survey and interpretation to identify geotechnical risk before design and construction.
Disturbed and undisturbed sampling; CPT, vane, dilatometer, pressuremeter and permeability testing.
Index and mechanical properties to ASTM standards — triaxial UU/CU/CD, consolidation, carbonate content and more.
Foundation design, slope stability, numerical modeling and supervision of exploration campaigns.
Borehole program tailored to the project, field conditions and client requirements.
Piston-corer recovery of undisturbed cores and in-situ field testing.
Accredited testing under ASTM-standardized processes and regular proficiency-testing programs.
Site stratigraphy, geological framework and engineering solutions for project demands.
Our soil mechanics laboratory is accredited by ema (entidad mexicana de acreditación, a.c.) — impartial, validated and internationally recognized results.
We operate latest-generation instrumented equipment and participate regularly in proficiency-testing programs across testing disciplines.
