Geotechnics and geophysics<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The geophysical<\/strong> prospecting allows to characterize the different physical properties of the subsoil. To this effect, we use the most up-to-date and leading-edge techniques in the market.<\/p>\n

In addition, thanks to a wide range of qualified professionals, we offer reliable solutions to complex problems linked to the behaviour of the soil and the establishment of lasting foundations over time. These services are aimed to both individuals and companies.<\/p>\n

Provided our specialization in geotechnics<\/strong>, we investigate the structure and dynamics of soils and rocks to determine their properties, which allows us to design and seize foundations for both construction and civil engineering works.<\/p>\n

In addition, we apply various geophysical <\/strong>techniques to achieve optimal research in the field of geology-geotechnics.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the philosophy of our company is the conviction that a good geotechnical study can save many costs when executing a work, taking into account the correct and proactive implementation of security.<\/p>\n

        Geophysics<\/h2>\n

        Nowadays, the civil engineering allows to do advanced designs of construction thanks to the techniques of geophysics applied to geotechnics, in order to obtain a clear knowledge of the area on which you want to develop a constructive project.<\/p>\n

        This technique allows the use of physical quantitative methods, such as the physics of reflection and refraction of mechanical waves, and a series of methods based on the measurement of gravity, electromagnetic, magnetic or electric fields and radioactive phenomena.<\/p>\n

        Our professionals put into practice a system of indirect intervention by means of these geophysical techniques that allow obtaining both soil and ground data for the settlement of the project, obtaining a global analysis in a spectrum broader than the one obtained by means of specific direct tests on the surface to investigate. All this has an impact on optimization and cost savings, offering a global overview.<\/p>\n

        Applications<\/h3>\n

        Techniques such as refraction seismic method allow us to evaluate the material’s ripability and define 3D cubicles to estimate volumes of earthworks and thus define the costs of civil works for the viability of projects.<\/p>\n

        Regarding electromagnetic exploration in frequency domain (FDEM), it makes the detection of rocky bases and \/ or fractured areas possible, to know the situation of the water table or the possible existence of contaminated areas with leachates, on top of facilitating the geological characterization of the subsoil, among many other features. <\/p>\n

        The multielectrode and SEV geoelectric methods allow us to define the resistivity of the materials, allowing to detect cavities or punctual alterations of material, the study of contacts with superficial anthropic fillings and in landslides, as well as detection of possible aquifers.<\/p>\n

        This technique also allows to characterize the soil geoelectrically for the design of earth intakes.<\/p>\n
