Field Exploration & Testing

Comprehensive On-Site Investigations for Safe and Reliable Design

From soil strength analysis to foundation design inputs — delivering actionable field data for every stage of your project.

Introduction

The performance and safety of any civil engineering project begin with knowing the ground you build on.
At Geotest Engineering PVT. LTD., our Field Exploration & Testing services provide a complete range of in-situ investigations to assess soil properties, foundation conditions, and material performance directly on-site.

With 22+ years of experience, an ISO 9001:2015 certified process, and adherence to IS and ASTM standards, we ensure our field results translate into confident design and construction decisions.

Case Spotlight

Bridge Foundation Investigation – Eastern India
Our field teams conducted plate load, CPT, permeability, and resistivity tests for a six-span bridge project over challenging alluvial soil. The accurate data enabled the design team to opt for a hybrid pile-and-raft foundation system, saving construction costs and time.
