Geotechnical Design Services

Services for Different Design Stages

We provide reliable and cost-effective geotechnical and structural designs to  hydropower and infrastructure clients. We assist our clients through various design stages of projects, including alternative studies, preliminary design, and the preparation of a comprehensive geotechnical interpretation report. Additionally, we conduct slope stability analysis, foundation design and tunnel during the tender stage, tender evaluation, and detail design stage. Our expertise also covers design review and other related services.

Geotechnical Interpretation Report

We provide comprehensive Geotechnical Interpretation Reports (GIR) that deliver a detailed analysis of subsurface conditions, ensuring safe and efficient design solutions for construction, infrastructure, and tunnelling projects. We support developers and consultants by offering: 

Site Investigation Data Analysis – Interpretation of borehole logs, geophysical surveys, in-situ and laboratory test results. 

Soil & Rock Characterization – Classification of ground materials, strength properties, and geotechnical parameters for design considerations, incorporating soil and rock profiling techniques. 

Tunnelling & Rock Mechanics Assessment – Analysis of rock mass quality, stress conditions, and potential hazards to optimize tunnel design and support systems. 

Geotechnical Risk Evaluation – Identification of geohazards such as landslides, subsidence, fault zones, and groundwater challenges. 

Foundation & Excavation Recommendations – Providing expert advice on deep/shallow foundations, retaining structures, cuttings, and embankments. 

Our expertise ensures a comprehensive understanding of ground behaviour, reducing risks and optimizing design solutions for safe and sustainable development.

Soil and Rock Profiling for Foundations

We are specialized in creating detailed soil and rock profiles for dam foundations by utilizing borehole data and geophysical surveys. Our soil and rock profiling process offers a comprehensive understanding of subsurface conditions, ensuring the stability, safety, and longevity of dam structures.


Our Approach:

Borehole Data Interpretation – Analyzing core samples, Standard Penetration Test (SPT) results, and laboratory tests to compile a geotechnical interpretation report that determines soil and rock properties.

Geophysical Surveys – Employing methods such as seismic refraction, electrical resistivity, and ground-penetrating radar (GPR) to map subsurface variations.

Soil & Rock Stratification – Identifying different layers, strength parameters, permeability, and deformation characteristics.

Foundation Suitability Assessment – Evaluating bearing capacity, settlement potential, and potential risks such as seepage or liquefaction.

Geotechnical Risk Identification – Detecting weak zones, fault lines, karst formations, or any geohazards affecting the dam's foundation stability.

Our soil and rock profiling services empower engineers and developers to make informed decisions, mitigate geological risks, and optimize dam foundation design for long-term performance.

Slope Stability

We provide slope stability analysis through both limit equilibrium and FEM, ensuring a comprehensive geotechnical interpretation report. In addition to designing excavated slopes, we conducts stress analysis, checks their stability, and performs groundwater analysis. We also offers excavation support system designs for both soil and rock profiling. Our designs include seismic analysis for slopes, as well as for embankments and dam abutments, accounting for fluctuations in water levels.

Underground Excavation

By using FEM software, we designs complex, multi-stage models and interprets results for every stage of excavation, contributing to a comprehensive geotechnical interpretation report. We design tunnels and shafts in weak and jointed rock, underground powerhouse caverns, and tunnel portals. We adopts all rock mass classifications for determining support measures empirically and numerically for all tunnel classes. Numerically, we employs the convergence-confinement method for anticipating deformation in rock mass and support design.

Tunnel Lining Design

Tunnel Lining is specifically designed for hydropower and transportation tunnels, taking into account the results from a geotechnical interpretation report. It is engineered to withstand both internal and external water pressures, as well as additional factors such as wedges and other existing pressures, all of which are crucial for conducting a slope stability analysis and for accurate soil and rock profiling.

Deep Excavation

Shoring design for deep excavation in building basements requires a thorough geotechnical interpretation report to determine the appropriate type of piles based on the geology of the site. Important options include sheet piles, contiguous piles, and soldier piles, all of which should be assessed alongside a slope stability analysis and soil and rock profiling to ensure structural integrity.

Site Investigations

  1.  We provide comprehensive site investigation services for both shallow and deep foundations, tailored to various ground conditions including rock and soil. Our expertise ensures a thorough understanding of subsurface characteristics, enabling us to deliver precise recommendations for your project's foundation design. We utilize advanced techniques to assess soil bearing capacity, rock quality, and groundwater conditions, providing our clients with the critical data needed for safe and efficient construction.
