The geological and geotechnical characteristics of different water, building and infrastructure construction sites are unique. Sound geotechnical data is needed during investigations, engineering, contracting and construction phases to ensure that safe and stable structures are built.
DHV offers a broad geotechnical services package that can be applied in all construction projects that involve soil. Our expertise covers hydraulic structures, dams, dredging, land reclamation, developments for ports, coastal, urban and industrial areas, infrastructure (roads, railways, bridges and tunnels), sewer and drainage systems and related structures such as power and waste water treatment plants.
We execute and supervise feasibility and seismic studies, designs, onshore and offshore field and laboratory investigations, and offer support during the realization phase. DHV uses state-of-the-art modeling software for solid evaluation of geotechnical and geohydrological problems and in particular slope stability, settlements, building pit and foundation designs.
