Geotechnical reports are prepared to provide geotechnical data, such as site conditions and associated matters for the planning and design of your development.
See our careers page for more information.
A Preliminary Site Investigation (PSI) consists of a desktop study and detailed ‘walk-over’ site inspection to determine the potential for site contamination. Where the results of a PSI demonstrate the potential for contamination, a Detailed Site Investigation (DSI) should be undertaken, consisting of an assessment to determine the level of risk posed by the contaminants to human health and the environment through laboratory testings of the sub-soil profile.
Generally, we aim to get most reports finalised within 2-3 days of completion of fieldwork. However, times can vary depending on the nature and complexity of the report. Your assigned manager will be able to provide an estimate for any specific report.
A geotechnical investigation usually consists of a detailed ‘walk-over’ site inspection followed by an investigation of the sub-soil profile in accordance with Australian Standards AS 1726.
Geotechnical reports remain valid for the site unless there is a change to the proposed development or site conditions, these changes could include but are not limited to planting trees, soil excavation and filling on site.
