Soil Testing for Construction Projects
Analyzing the properties of soil at a construction site to understand the soil’s composition, strength, and stability that can impact the design and safety of infrastructures
We offer an extensive list of soil testing services in construction, ensuring that your property is built on stable ground, is resilient to potential hazards, and complies with safety and environmental considerations.
Completed Projects
Soil testing ensures that the foundation is designed appropriately to prevent settlement, shifting, or failure.
Understanding soil characteristics allows engineers to implement precautionary measures to mitigate safety risks.
Soil testing is a part of the permitting process that ensures all construction projects meet the safety and environmental standards imposed by regulatory agencies in the Philippines.
