Geotechnical Construction / Engineering

Our geophysical solutions are integral to geotechnical investigations, providing non-invasive insights into subsurface conditions for construction and infrastructure projects.

We assist engineers and developers in assessing soil stability, bedrock depth, fault zones, and potential hazards using seismic, resistivity, and microgravity techniques. From site selection to foundation design, our surveys help mitigate risk, ensure compliance, and optimise engineering outcomes for tunnels, roads, dams, and buildings.

The use of geophysics for civil engineering applications is rapidly becoming more important. At Zonge Geophysics, we have extensive experience using conventional EM and resistivity-based techniques (ERT / ERI). Radar techniques like GPR are important tools in this space—we have extensive experience here as well.
