 Subsidence Investigation

Insurance related subsidence surveys; investigating typical issues such as: defective drainage, tree root ingress, dessicated clays, shallow foundations and poor or unsuitable foundation design. Our site investigations include:

  • Hand excavated, fully logged trial pits and hand augered boreholes; carried out to meet your specific requirements.
  • On site, in-situ shear vane and macintosh probe testing, to aid accurate ground condition analysis.
  • Window sampling
  • Restricted access rotary auger drilling (useful for heave calculation and level datum installation.
  • A fully comprehensive, in-house, laboratory, able to provide many services including moisture content, soil suction, atterberg limits, soil contamination and triaxial testing.
  • A team of experienced geologists focused on providing both factual reports and interpretive written reports.
 

 New Build Investigation

An essential prerequisit to any civil engineering or building project is a detailed amd accurate assessment of the ground conditions.

With the requirements for development in urban areas there is a growing interest in 'brownfield' or industrial sites. Fastrack Geotechnical Services Limited perform detailed investigations of contaminated soil and groundwater by:

  • Desk studies
  • Establishing sources, pathways and receptors
  • Trial pits, boreholes and long term monitoring
  • Chemical testing (e.g. heavy metals and organics)
  • Design of remedial measures
  • Validation monitoring and reporting
 

 Laboratory Analysis

A thorough laboratory testing programme is an essential part of any geotechnical investigation; Fastrack's in-house laboratory are able to provide this as a part of our service to our clients. Soil testing plays a major part in the design and planning of construction projects, earthworks design, foundation design, slope stability studies and subsidence or heave of building and structures.

 

 

 Drainage Repairs

Drains may crack due to ground movement subsidence, tree root ingress or they may totally collapse. The result is a defective drain causing repeat blockages or leaks into the surround soil.

Whatever the problem the most appropriate solution can be determined by Fastrack CCTV surveying service. This will identify the nature of any structural fault, which will lead to recommending the most appropriate repair technique.

Excavation

  • Replace short sections of pipe at a shallow depth.
  • A collapsed or structurally defective pipe which can not be repaired using a 'no-dig' technique.

Lining

  • Minimal cost
  • Minimal disruption and inconvenience
  • Suitable for all types and sizes of pipes from 75mm diameter upwards.
