Geotechnical Interpretations
A solid foundation is essential before sports surface construction begins. We start with an examination and interpretation of the soils and an understanding of potential loading. We use civil engineering methods and principles to collect and analyze physical properties of the ground. It is important that this step is done correctly because any errors at this stage can prove costly and time will be lost if you are required to go back and redo work.
