We aim to provide high-quality testing of construction materials and consultancy services to the civil construction, agriculture, environmental, mining, and resources industries across WA and the NT.

Geotechnical investigations are very important before any structure can be built, from a single residential dwelling to large infrastructure projects. To obtain information about the soil conditions below the surface, some form of subsurface exploration is required. Methods of observing the soils below the surface, obtaining samples, and determining physical properties of the soils and rocks include test pits, trenching (particularly for locating faults and slide planes), boring, and in situ tests. These can also be used to identify contamination in soils prior to development in order to avoid negative environmental impacts.
