Services
For the last 15 years, O'Terra Geotech Group, Inc. has been committed to providing our clients with a wide range of geotechnical engineering services. Our professional engineering personnel are highly educated, have extensive experience and skills in the field of geotechnical and materials engineering to meet our clients' need.
Foundation engineering involves the determination of the best suited and most economical foundation types and depth for our clients' projects based on the strength of foundation soils and rocks. We provide geotechnical information, design data, and recommendations for slab-on-grade, mat foundation and drilled piers foundation to the project structure engineer.
At O'Terra Geotech Group, Inc., we can provide you with all your soil engineering needs. Soils and foundation investigation involve soil borings, test pits, CPT sounding, using truck-mounted track-mounted and portable drilling rigs. Standard Penetration Test (SPT) is conducted at 5' or less intervals.
When buildings to be constructed on existing slopes we investigate the condition and stability of the slopes, perform stability analysis using computer program and provide written recommendations. For landslide project, we investigate the site, conduct foundation explorations and provide repair recommendations.
