SOIL
Soil Testing Equipment are used for understanding and investigating the physical/mechanical properties, critical characteristic behaviours, performance of soil, unbound and hydraulically bound mixtures during compression, shear or inner liquid flow under dynamic and vibrating loading conditions. Soil characteristics are also used for deciding the most suitable method for excavating underground tunnels.
Every man-made structure needs a foundation that will resist to the exposed forces, such as live loads, dead loads and wind loads . The soil tests provide the engineering firms and construction companies with the ability to predict the mechanical behaviour of soils in order to design foundations that ensure resistance to forces likely to act upon it, including any unusual / extreme events such as earthquakes or hurricanes, thus providing a safe environment for people in or around the structures.
