Seismic Refraction Survey

ApplicationApparatusProcessed Results
- Obtains the seismic velocity profile of the ground. Data can be utilized to predict the depth of bedrock, rock strength/rippability, and layer thicknesses.

Seismic Reflection Survey

ApplicationApparatusProcessed Results
- Used for mapping layer thicknesses, bedrock levels, topography, horizontal profiling, voids and sinkholes, faults and horizontal fracture zones. It is particularly useful where high detail is necessary or in complex geological environments.

MASW (Multichannel Analysis of Surface Waves)

ApplicationApparatusProcessed Results
- Measures the surface shear wave velocities that travel through the ground. The processed data can be used to estimate the thickness of overburden and bedrock and evaluate ground stiffness. The test can be conducted for onshore and offshore investigations.

Crosshole Seismic

ApplicationApparatusProcessed Results
- Establishes the seismic velocity profile of the ground which can be used to estimate the dynamic properties of soil and rock.

P-S Logging

The PS Logger probe measures P (compression) and S (shear) wave velocities in a single borehole without the need for external energy sources

Geo-Resistivity Test

ApplicationApparatusProcessed Results
- Involves electrical measurements carried out on the ground surface to determine the depth and thickness of the underlying resistivity layers.
- Used to characterize possible lithologies and materials on site.

APAGEO PRESSUREMETER

A Pressuremeter test is an in-situ stress controlled loading test

performed on the wall of a borehole using a cylindrical probe which

can expand radially.

From the test readings (volume variation based on controlled

pressure), a stress-strain curve can be obtained, in the case of plane

deformation, which yields :

• the creep pressure Pf

• the Menard limit pressure PL

GROUND PENETRATING RADAR

Locating method that uses radio waves capture images below the surfaces of the ground in a minimally invasive way

Cone Penetration Test

Menard Pressuremeter

 

Manufacturer: Germany

A PRESSURE-METER TEST is an In-Situ Stress Controlled Loading Test Performed on the wall of a borehole using cylindrical probe which can expand radially
