KEY PERFORMANCE AREAS

Identification of subsurface and/or surface geologic features which may hamper development.

       These include, but are not limited to:

  • The occurrence and modelling of soluble bedrock;
  • Identification and quantification of problem soils(soil mechanics);
  • Modelling of problematic geological structures/ rock discontinuities;
  • Slope stability;
  • Site excavatability;
  • Ground-and surface water features;
  • The delineation of development potential zonation for developments exhibiting a large surface area, multiple land use zones and/or numerous optional sites;
  • Assessing the re-usage potential of on-site materials and/or the exploration for available construction material sources in any given area;
  • The formulation of accurate geotechnical models to guide engineering solutions;
GEO

What we do: Engineering Geology forms the core of GeoCalibre’s expertise, with the field itself incorporating the application of the geologic sciences to engineering practice. This assures that the key geologic factors of engineering works are recognized and adequately provided for; allowing for the precise design, construction, operation and maintenance of any given development

Why we do it: The successful completion of a reproducible and innovative geotechnical investigation- through qualified professionals- enables cost effective and sustainable development.According to the Site Investigation Code of Practice of South Africa (SAICE, 2010) the conducting of a detailed geotechnical site investigation can save a client anywhere between 10 and 100 % on the project foundation costs.

Why choose us: Uses advanced scientific methods to create accurate and reproducible geotechnical models; successfully guiding the implementation of site-specific design precautionary measures/engineering solutions. The methodology followed throughout the investigative process accounts for the nature and location of the development as well as adhering to the standards of our practice (SANS and SAICE).
