Soil Lab & Site Investigation

At United Hawk Lab, we offer comprehensive Soil Lab and Site Investigation services to support a wide range of civil engineering, construction, and environmental projects. Our services are designed to provide critical information on soil properties, site conditions, and environmental factors that directly affect the design, construction, and sustainability of infrastructure.

Soil Lab Testing Services

Our state-of-the-art Soil Laboratory is equipped with the latest technology and operated by a team of qualified experts, ensuring accurate, reliable, and timely results. We perform a variety of essential soil tests that help engineers and contractors understand the characteristics of the soil on a given site. These tests are crucial for determining the soil’s suitability for different types of construction, including foundations, roads, buildings, and bridges. Key tests include:

  1. Soil Classification and Grain Size Analysis – We classify soil based on its particle size distribution, which helps in understanding its drainage properties, compaction behavior, and potential stability.

  2. Atterberg Limits Test – This test determines the plasticity of soil, which is essential in identifying its behavior under varying moisture conditions, crucial for construction planning.

  3. Compaction Testing – Our lab assesses the compaction characteristics of soil, which is vital for ensuring the stability of construction projects, especially in road building and foundation work.

  4. Shear Strength Testing – We measure the shear strength of soils to understand how they resist forces, a critical factor for evaluating the safety of foundations and slopes.

  5. Consolidation Testing – This test helps to predict the settlement behavior of soils when subjected to loading, ensuring that structures are built on stable ground.

  6. Permeability Testing – Our tests determine the rate at which water can flow through the soil, which is important for drainage systems and preventing water-related damage to structures.

  7. Moisture Content and Density Testing – These tests are vital for determining the soil’s moisture levels and its ability to support load-bearing structures.

All our soil lab tests are conducted in accordance with ASTM, BS, and other internationally recognized standards to ensure the highest level of accuracy and reliability.

Site Investigation Services

Our Site Investigation services offer in-depth knowledge of site conditions, giving clients a clear understanding of the challenges they may face during construction. We perform detailed on-site investigations that gather critical data on soil composition, groundwater levels, and geotechnical conditions. This data helps engineers design safe and cost-effective structures.

Our Site Investigation services include:

  1. Geotechnical Drilling – We use advanced drilling techniques to extract soil samples from various depths, allowing us to analyze the stratigraphy and strength characteristics of the soil layers.

  2. Subsurface Exploration – We conduct borehole drilling to obtain essential information about the soil and groundwater conditions at different depths, which is vital for assessing the stability of foundations and structures.

  3. Groundwater Monitoring – Our team monitors groundwater levels and flow patterns, which are key for designing drainage systems and assessing the impact of water on foundation stability.

  4. Geophysical Testing – We employ non-invasive geophysical techniques, such as seismic refraction and electrical resistivity, to assess soil properties over large areas, providing a broad understanding of subsurface conditions.

  5. Site Safety and Risk Assessment – As part of our site investigations, we identify potential hazards such as soil contamination, unstable ground, or areas prone to flooding, ensuring that the construction site meets safety regulations and environmental standards.
