Wetland and Dam Recommendations

Site Geotechnical have Geotechnical Engineers experienced in undertaking earthworks inspections to provide advice on subgrade inspections, foundation treatments, test rolls, strip inspections for wetland and dam projects in accordance with the project Earthworks Specifications.

Given that wetlands and dams are specifically designed to hold water continual monitoring is usually required to meet this objective.  Using the wrong materials or not meeting project specification requirements can play a role on the success of the project.
