Before starting design and construction, the site conditions must be studied. This is the job of engineering surveys — a set of field and laboratory works that provide a complete picture of the soil, terrain and environmental situation of the area.
Types of surveys
Engineering-geodetic surveys determine the terrain and coordinates of objects. Engineering-geological surveys study the composition and bearing capacity of soils and the groundwater level. Engineering-environmental surveys assess the state of air, water, soil and the radiation background. For critical projects the full set is carried out.
Why it is needed
Survey results are the basis for safe and economically sound design. Without them it is impossible to correctly calculate the foundation, choose structural solutions and pass the state expert review. Saving on surveys often turns into serious costs at the construction stage.
Where to start
Start by defining the task: the type of object, area, timeline and region. Based on this we determine the required scope of work and prepare a cost estimate. GEO PRO performs the full cycle of engineering surveys and takes on approvals with state supervisory and architectural authorities.
