Our reports provide recommendations for a variety of relevant geotechnical properties including foundation design, piling, groundwater issues, and retaining wall design with respect to the very latest industry standards, and developments.
Southern Testing also employ a number of external consultants, who work in close contact with professional and specialist committees and major UK universities. We are able to provide expert advice with respect to piled foundations, basement design and analysis.
As an example, using our suite of geotechnical software Southern Testing is able to carry out analysis of foundation settlement of individual and “overlapping” foundations. We are also able to analyse soil displacements resulting from soil unloading when constructing basements.
A typical example for the case of soil heave resulting from a five metre deep excavation in London Clay.
