What is Geotechnical Engineering + Why is it Crucial?
Geotechnical engineering consultants use principles from physics and geology to build solid foundations for roads, buildings and other structures that will last for decades — it’s much more than dirt and concrete. In order to handle this process, they have to have an extraordinary range of skills. Geotechnical engineers must be able to do a great deal of field work as well as understand building materials and systems at a very basic level.
When completing construction of any kind, it is important to understand the properties of the site you intend to build on. Geotechnical engineering consultants analyze the site on which you’ll be building to determine ground and slope stability, load capacity and more.
