Geotechnical Tests
Geotechnical tests are engineering procedures with the purpose of collecting information about the terrain profile by the assimilation of the soils and/or rocks that form the underground layers. Therefore, the mechanical parameters, physical and chemical characteristics of the studied subsurface are determined. It is extremely important that geotechnical tests are performed to find out the underground conditions, in order to guide the appropriate engineering solution for each location.
Tecnosonda performs a wide variety of tests, such as the classification of soils and rocks, triaxial tests, granulometry with complete characterization, chemical analysis, Cross-Hole tests, densification, sample removal and others.
