OUR GEOTECHNICAL ANALYSIS SERVICES

Our modern laboratory performs all soil identification tests necessary for your projects:

Fundamental Analyses

• Water content: Precise determination of the ratio between water mass and solid particle mass, an essential parameter for evaluating soil consistency and mechanical behavior.
• Degree of saturation: Measurement of the percentage of voids occupied by water, allowing anticipation of volumetric variations and soil stability under different moisture conditions.
• Specific weights: Calculation of dry and wet densities for optimal dimensioning of foundations and retaining structures.

Granulometric Characterization

• Complete granulometric analysis: Precise determination of particle size distribution, combining sieving and sedimentometry techniques for accurate soil classification.
• Atterberg limits: Evaluation of liquid and plastic limits to characterize soil sensitivity to moisture variations and its shrink-swell potential.

Bearing Capacity Tests

• CBR and IPI: Standardized measurement of soil resistance to penetration, a crucial parameter for dimensioning roadways, platforms, and earthworks.
• Modified and standard Proctor: Determination of optimal compaction conditions (water content and density) to ensure long-term stability of embankments and platforms.

Specialized Analyses

• Methylene Blue Value (MBV): Precise quantification of soil clay content, an essential indicator of its sensitivity to water and shrink-swell phenomena.

OBJECTIVES

Our global objective is to contribute to Africa's development through three main axes:

1. Provide specialists and technicians with an appropriate structure for their professional development, a platform for expression, exchange of experiences, and know-how in the consulting sector and intellectual services.
2. Develop strategic partnerships with other Engineering Firms worldwide to facilitate technology and expertise transfer.
3. Create and maintain cordial and lasting working relationships with all development partners and stakeholders.
