Site Investigations
-
Detailed Investigation: We conduct comprehensive site
investigations to understand subsurface conditions, including
soil, rock, and groundwater characteristics.
-
Sampling and Testing: We utilize various sampling techniques
and laboratory testing to analyze soil and rock properties to
ensure accurate data for design and construction.
-
Geological Mapping: We produce detailed geological maps and
cross-sections to visualize subsurface conditions and guide
engineering decisions.
Geotechnical Modelling
-
Numerical Modeling: We utilize advanced software to create
geotechnical models that simulate ground behavior under various
conditions.
-
Risk Assessment: Assess potential risks such as ground
movement, subsidence, and stability issues.
-
Design Optimization: We offer recommendations to optimize
designs and mitigate potential geotechnical challenges.
Slope Stability Analysis
-
Stability Assessments: We analyze the stability of slopes and
embankments to prevent failures and ensure safety.
-
Remedial Measures: We recommend ground stabilization techniques
such as retaining walls, soil nails, anchors, etc.
-
Monitoring: We install monitoring systems (e.g., slope radar,
geophones) to track slope movement and stability over
time.
Ground Control and Support Design
-
Stability Analysis: Analyze ground stability to determine
appropriate control measures and support systems.
-
Underground Support Systems:
-
We conduct rock mechanics studies to understand rock behavior
and design effective support systems.
-
Designing systems like rock bolts, shotcrete, and mesh to
ensure underground mine stability.
-
Seismicity and Ground Monitoring: We install systems to detect
and manage seismic activity in mining environments.
Mine Design and Planning
-
Pit Design: Develop optimal pit designs considering geology,
economics, and safety.
-
Underground Layouts: We plan and design underground mine
layouts, including access drives, stops, and ore handling
systems.
-
Operational Planning: We provide recommendations for mine
scheduling, equipment selection, and resource management.
