Our Testing Standards & Methodologies
We follow Indian Standards (IS Codes) for all geotechnical investigations
Standard Penetration Test (SPT)
Conducted as per IS: 2131-2002 using 65kg hammer with 750mm free fall. SPT N-values determine soil bearing capacity and density at various depths for accurate foundation design.
Laboratory Testing
Comprehensive analysis including moisture content, grain size distribution, Atterberg limits, specific gravity, and differential free swell as per IS: 2720 standards.
Borehole Operations
Professional drilling using rotary rigs (150mm diameter in soil, 76mm in rock) as per IS:1892-2000. Proper bentonite mud circulation ensures accurate sampling without soil disturbance.
Undisturbed Sampling
Collection of UDS tube samples from clayey strata for advanced testing. Ensures accurate determination of soil properties for critical foundation recommendations.
Tests Included in Our Comprehensive Soil Investigation Report:
- Natural Moisture Content (NMC) - IS:2720 Part 2
- Grain Size Analysis - IS:2720 Part 4
- Specific Gravity - IS:2720 Part 3
- Liquid & Plastic Limits - IS:2720 Part 5
- Plasticity Index (PI)
- Differential Free Swell (DFS)
- Soil Classification (USCS)
- Safe Bearing Capacity

Soil testing determines load-bearing capacity and soil characteristics essential for safe foundation design. It prevents structural failures, ensures compliance with building codes, and helps avoid costly construction issues.
Our comprehensive testing includes bearing capacity, moisture content, soil classification, compaction tests, pH analysis, permeability, shear strength, and other parameters required for proper foundation design.
Sample collection typically takes 1-2 days, and laboratory analysis requires 5-7 working days. You'll receive a detailed report with foundation recommendations within 7-10 working days total.
Yes, soil investigation reports are mandatory for building plan approval in Chennai and most municipalities in Tamil Nadu. It's required to obtain construction permits and ensure structural safety.
The report includes soil classification, bearing capacity, moisture content, density, pH levels, recommended foundation type and depth, construction guidelines, and certification for regulatory submission.
