Melbourne has switched from largely dry conditions to sites already presenting as saturated. These can bring challenging conditions in getting concrete into the ground.
If your soil test was done only 3 months ago, there is a fair chance these conditions were not seen.

Engineers are asking for foundation material to be verified on residential building sites more and more. Who better to do this than your geotech?
We can provide this service on our own soil reports or someone’s else’s report.
No more lost time. No more site inspectors being unsure. Indepth will give clear advice both on site and than reflect that on the written cert 126 for inspection.

Sometimes I get asked if the soil test will be a good result.
Sometimes I go into an explanation of the various classifications, but really a good result is a correct result. The soil report is about being prepared. Knowing what is there means the engineer is armed with correct info and can design accordingly.
Let’s look at the alternative. An incorrect soil report could lead to a design that doesn’t perform well. Then realising on site will cost time and money.
So the best soil reports will be correct soil reports. After all, what can you do? The soil at your site can’t really be changed.

Please note from next week we will be bunching jobs by location in an effort to not charge a fuel levy on soil reports. This may lead to turnaround times increasing by a few days. We may wait on some jobs for others in that general direction to hit the system.
We are always trying to balance fair cost and timing for all jobs.
As always all jobs outside melb metro area will need to be quoted.
We thank you for your understanding at this time
