Geotechnical

For any project big or small, nationwide, we are able to provide a phased approach to our Ground Investigations to minimise our client’s financial exposure at different stages of the development process. Our desk studies help inform future investigation works so that intrusive on-site investigations can be tailored to suit site specific issues that may exist. We are able to carry out in-situ testing and on-site sampling to allow detailed laboratory testing to be completed. We then use the results to determine engineering properties and stability of the soils to allow us to evaluate various geotechnical aspects such as foundation, pavement, basement as well as design parameters, soil infiltration rates, depth and location of desiccated soils.

Environmental

At JPP we recognise that the key to a successful project is often hidden from view. Often the project's viability depends on the costs associated with hidden features buried within the ground in the form of chemical and gaseous contamination. We are able to assess contaminated land issues and guide our clients through the legislation processes and where required, report on and monitor remediation works. We can identify soil classifications for off-site disposal purposes (WAC - Waste Assessment Criteria) or can advise on the suitability of materials to be treated and retained on site.
