Things You Should Know About Soil Investigation

Description:

Site investigation or Subsoil discoveries are done with the help of acquiring the information about subsurface conditions at the site wished-for construction. Soil discoveries consist of being responsible for the profile of the natural soil residues at the site, taking the soil tasters, and defining the engineering properties of soils using laboratory tests as well as on-site testing methods. In fact, there are many soil investigation companies in Dubai that will assist you to get top-notch soil investigation, soil laboratory testing and soil analysis services. – PowerPoint PPT presentation

Things You Should Know About Soil Investigation

  • Soil investigation must be commenced to determine
    the bearing ability of the soil, its completion
    rate, and the location of the water table. One of
    the easiest approaches is to dig trial pits and
    visual examinations carried out then tasters with
    minimum disturbance are gathered for successive
    laboratory testing. Where feasible, drilling
    should be commenced as this enables one to obtain
    uninterrupted samples from which settlement rate
    and bearing capacity may be achieved.

  • For any respectful designing venture, anyway
    enormous or little, it is of essential
    significance that an appropriate field study and
    an exact geotechnical examination be led. The
    geotechnical examination is an indispensable
    piece of the development procedure that is done
    to get data about the physical qualities of
    soil/rock around a site.

  • If the power of the soil is not sufficient for
    the increased loading, it is essential to develop
    on the foundations by presenting piles or
    enlarging the footing and strengthening it
    betters to withstand the increased loading.

  • 1. Site Exploration
  • Site reconnaissance is the initial stage of site
    investigation. In this stage, visual examination
    of the site is done and information about
    topographical and geological structures of the
    site is collected.
  • 2. Introductory Site Exploration
  • Primary site exploration is carried out for
    airfields, highways, minor projects, etc. The
    main intention of the preliminary investigation
    is to obtain a ballpark picture of sub soil
    conditions at a minimal cost. It is also called
    common site exploration.

  • 3. Full Site Exploration
  • Full exploration is preferred for complicated
    projects, major engineering works, heavy
    structures like dams, bridges, high rise
    buildings, etc. A massive amount of capital is
    needed for a full site exploration hence, it is
    not recommended for minimal engineering works
    where the budget is narrow. For such kind of
    works, data collected throughout introductory
    site exploration is sufficient.

  • 4. Preparation of Report of Sub-Soil Exploration
  • After presenting preliminary or full site
    exploration systems a report should be prepared.
