We have carried out several site exploration programs for a wide range of projects, including buildings, water supply systems, transmission lines, sewage treatment plants, and power plants, as well as roads and bridges, public works and commercial structures, and healthcare. We plan and execute effective site investigation programs for projects of any complexity and location, using the appropriate equipment, relevant experience, and skilled employees. RSV conducts a full study of your site utilizing cutting-edge technology. Sample collection methods include test pitting, borehole drilling and sampling, and geophysical logging. Geotechnical testing at your project site properly quantifies ground conditions. To determine design parameters, soil samples are analyzed at our in-house soil and rock testing laboratory.

Our field data acquisition and sampling services are underpinned by our geotechnical expertise in executing complex and technically demanding projects. Other key services include:

• Desktop studies

• Advanced laboratory soils and rock testing

• Numerical and physical modelling of foundations

• Consultancy

• Engineering analysis Combining these services with RSV’s geology, geophysics and other related geoscience expertise enables us to provide you with a comprehensive package of solutions: Conceptual design, Feasibility, Development and Installation
