Geotechnical Investigation
Geotechnical / Subsurface Investigation being the basic and first step before commencing any construction activity, MRUDA Geotech offers services for investigation, a complete package including
Fieldwork – Mobilisation, Boring in soil, Drilling in rock, SPT, Collection of soil, rock, and water samples.
Laboratory Testing and Analysis of Soil, Rock, and Ground Water samples. Geotechnical Investigation Report with SBC and Foundation recommendation.
Field / In-situ Tests like Plate Load Test.
Ground Improvement schemes- proposal and detailing
Some project sites are to be executed on a piece of land whose sub-soil stratum is not capable of bearing the load of the proposed construction. Some of the sites with soft to very soft/marine clay deposits to a deeper depth below GL are to be utilized for the construction activities. In such scenarios, the ground improvement using the appropriate method is to be thought of for that particular site and the scheme can be proposed.
MRUDA Geotech has the capacity to provide technical proposals for various Ground Improvement schemes like Granular Piles, PVDs, Soil replacement, Geosynthetics applications, etc.
Reinforced Soil/Earth (RS/RE) Walls and Slopes
Moving with the advanced methodologies, MRUDA Geotech provides design services using soil reinforcing technique (Design and supporting Drawings with BOQ.) for ramps of bridges, Flyovers, ROBs, VUPs, etc. which are now an integral part of highways/expressways, and road widening works.
Reinforced Earth walls with block/panel/ gabion fascia have proved their importance and usability for transportation infrastructure. Soil reinforcement with wrap-around used as vertical/sloped supporting/retaining structures.
Slope Stability Analysis (software output) & Slope Protection Measures
For the widening of roads in hilly areas or where the soil/slag dumps are made with higher heights, slope stability becomes very important for the overall safety and stability of the project.
MRUDA Geotech offers – Technical reports on proposals for various slope protection measures, recommending solutions after a site visit and in a detailed stage of a project – slope stability analysis using software.
Diaphragm Walls (Anchored) & Shoring (Enabling system)
For deep excavations and for a site surrounded by existing structures, various shoring systems such as Contiguous / Secant pile walls,
Diaphragm walls with anchoring at various levels are recommended.
MRUDA Geotech offers design services including drawings and software outputs.
Field Tests and Reports
Various field tests such as
- Pile Load Test (Initial Vertical and Lateral),
- Plate load test etc
- Pressure meter Test
- SCPT and CPT
are required to be performed at site.
MRUDA Geotech offers these tests with field and technical support including submission of final test reports.
