Our Geologic Fault Investigation Services
Detailed Fault Mapping and Analysis
We conduct comprehensive fault mapping to identify the presence and characteristics of geological faults within a project area. Our analysis includes assessing fault activity, movement, and potential impact on construction sites.
Soil and Rock Sampling
Our investigations involve soil and rock sampling at various depths along the fault lines. These samples are analyzed in our laboratory to understand the geological conditions and inform the construction planning process.
Seismic Risk Assessment
We provide seismic risk assessments as part of our geologic fault investigations. This includes evaluating the potential of seismic activity and its implications for construction projects, ensuring designs are resilient to seismic forces.
Ground Stability Analysis
Our team assesses ground stability in areas with identified geological faults. This analysis is crucial for determining the suitability of the site for construction and for developing appropriate foundation designs and construction techniques.
