Fieldwork investigation is the necessary stages to collect the in situ data for supporting designs related to earthwork, natural slopes stability, man-made slopes stability (such as excavated slopes, embankment slopes and tailing dams), shallow & deep foundation, tunnels, traffic ability, road pavement, groundwater & surface water management, etc.
TMU’s fieldwork teams consists of geotechnical engineer, civil engineer, hydrologist & hydrogeologist which have been trained and have extensive experience in various fieldwork investigation, includes:
- Geotechnical investigation to explore the soils and rocks conditions. The investigation covers geotechnical mapping, geotechnical drilling (the drilling services can also be supported by TMU’s sister company or trusted vendor), soils/rocks description, soils/rocks sampling, laboratory testing in TMU’s trusted associates soil & rock mechanics laboratory. A factual report can be delivered to the Clients as an investigation product containing the results including documentation of the investigation.
- Wide range of geotechnical in situ test could be carried out by our expert such as Standard Penetration Test (SPT), Mechanical / Electrical Cone Penetration Test (CPT), Field Vane Shear Test (FVST), Pressuremeter Test (PMT),etc.
- Structural investigation to identify existing structure constructed for construction failure study using
- Hydrological investigation to explore the hydrologic features. The investigation shall be carried out by experienced hydrologist which covers hydrology mapping to identify the existence of rivers and lakes, including the movement and distribution of the surface water, water cycle, water resources and environmental watershed sustainability.
- The investigation shall be carried out by experienced hydrologist equipped with the standard in situ hydrogeology instrumentation test tools. The investigation covers groundwater level measurement, in situ groundwater quality, in situ permeability such as falling & raising head test and packer test using either a single packer or double packer.
