Ground Engineering

Dr. Sauer & Partners delivers experienced interpretation of geotechnical data for ground engineering.

Through accurate interpretation of geotechnical data, complicated geology can be accurately analysed and areas requiring additional investigation are identified. Geotechnical risk mapping is provided which increases the accuracy for geological predictions of excavations. Probing can be reduced and more efficient SCL design delivered.
