GEOTECHNICAL FIELD SUPERVISION AND TESTING
ETS GEOTECHNICAL have extensive experience in planning and executing fieldwork investigations to help the client achieve their aims. ETS also has a good working knowledge of the local and state government bodies, and associated permits required to carry out subsoil investigations.
Supervision Works in Accordance with AS3798
ETS is able to supervise and certify ‘engineered fill’ in accordance with level 1 supervision asper AS3798-1996. ETS has experienced geotechnicians who have the expertise to observe the works on site, offer recommendations for fill placement. Our field technicians have nuclear gauge licenses to take field density and moisture content readings; alternately sand replacement testing can be carried out. If required, our experienced geotechnicians are supported in the field by engineering staff, who may be engaged to review designs in the field, and provide recommendations on a variety of geotechnical issues. On completion of the supervision works a report will be issued, outlining the level of supervision and summarising field density and laboratory testing. On completion of the level 1 supervision works the repost issued will be able to be submitted to the council as proof that the fill was placed as per specification (provided the client strives to meet specification standard). By carrying out Level 1 supervision the client is able to reduce their risk and pass the risk to the signing off body.
Subsurface Investigations
Subsurface investigations including boreholes, cone penetration tests, test pits, hand augers, dynamic cone penetrometer testing and hand auguring will be performed by experienced Geotechnicians and/or Geotechnical Engineers.
