Geotechnical services

Prevent delays and unwanted costs in your construction projects through accurate and reliable geotechnical investigations.
Geotechnical and Hydrogeological Services

What are geotechnical services?

Geotechnical services assist in construction quality assurance by assessing soil and groundwater before and during construction projects. Good construction projects require a foundation that is both safe and economical.

Geotechnical investigations from TÜV SÜD ensure safe and cost-effective execution of construction projects. Geotechnical and hydrogeological surveys are critical to minimise risks and avoid costly delays or rework.

Why geotechnical services are important

Different aspects of geotechnics play a role in all types of structures – whether on the surface or underground – highlighting the importance of geotechnical services. Owners, developers, operators, and contractors need to gather accurate and relevant data to mitigate risks through solutions such as ground improvement techniques.

Effective construction quality assurance through geotechnical and hydrogeological surveys helps maintain project timelines and budgets while protecting company reputation. Geotechnical engineering services offer several benefits, including managing project costs and timelines by identifying and addressing issues through site assessments. They also assist in compliance with evolving regulations by integrating geotechnical investigations into the construction quality assurance process.

These geotechnical services use advanced technologies like real-time data analytics and modelling techniques, which require significant investment and expertise to be effectively applied in construction projects.
