Geotechnical Engineering
Geotechnical Engineering Services at Stratex Ltd: Engineering the Future on Solid Ground
Defining Geotechnical Engineering
Geotechnical engineering stands as a vital branch of civil engineering, focusing on the behaviour of earth materials. It encompasses the study and application of soil and rock mechanics to ascertain the physical, mechanical, and chemical properties of these materials. This knowledge is pivotal for designing foundations, retaining structures, and earthworks, ensuring structures are built on solid, reliable ground. At Stratex Ltd, we leverage this specialist knowledge to deliver comprehensive geotechnical engineering services tailored to the unique geological features of Northern Ireland.
Comprehensive Services Tailored to Your Needs
Our Services
Our expertise in geotechnical engineering enables us to offer a wide range of services designed to address the complexities of soil and rock interactions with proposed constructions. These services include, but are not limited to:
Slope Stability and Retaining Wall Design:
We assess risks associated with slope instability and design retaining structures, including earth-filled dams and walls, to prevent soil erosion and promote land stability.
Earthworks Engineering:
Our team designs and supervises the construction of embankments, tunnels, channels, reservoirs, and bunds, ensuring they meet the highest standards of safety and durability.
Ground Improvement and Soil Stabilisation:
To enhance the bearing capacity and stability of soil, we offer ground improvement solutions, including pressure grouting and the use of injected polymers.
Geotechnical Site Investigation:
A critical step in determining the engineering parameters of soil and rock, our investigations assess geotechnical, geological, and hydrological risks, providing a foundation for safe and successful construction.
Foundation Design and Analysis:
Depending on ground conditions, foundations may be shallow or deep. We provide expert advice on the most suitable foundation types for your project.
