Need to know how to sample liquefable sand or to take very deep undisturbed samples ? how to carry out an offshore geotechnical campaign with water depth ranging from 0,5 to 50 m water? how to carry out a 100 m CPTU test in stratified soils without having a penetrometer, how to carry out geotechnical investigations in very peculiar environments? in few words do you need something special ?

Here are My services, rendered together other Professionals:

• Geotechnical, seismic, environmental Consulting, study of the interaction between soil and structures, soil geotechnical modeling, landslides study, study of water and geothermal resources, study of non-natural soils (i.e. Tailing Dams), etc.

• Courses on Geognostics, Geotechnics, Hydrogeology (Water Resources), in Italian and English

• Consulting and / or Design of Special Foundations (piles, micropiles, diaphragms walls, injections, anchor-piles, etc.), remediation projects, geotechnical, structural and environmental monitoring projects.

• Design and development of INNOVATIVE equipment for Geotechnical Drilling, Down-Hole Testing, CPT, Special means, Monitoring Tools, etc., including development of the electronic part and management software and scientific advice on data interpretation: special CPT, methods of Innovative drilling, Special Core-Barrels, Wireline, MWD, Drilling systems, Offshore-Nearshore testing systems, DownHole testing equipment, Special vehicles for drilling (nautical, onshore, difficult environments), Deep Geotechnical Drilling & Testing, Geotechnical-Structural Monitoring, etc.

• Consulting Service to Universities, Private or Public Engineering Companies for Planning and Optimization of geo-surveying campaigns (onshore, nearshore, offshore), subsoil structure projects,

• Development of hardware (electronics and small mechanics) for geotechnical and environmental tests and drilling and adaptation / adaptation of existing equipment.

•Planning and Managing in-site geotechnical investigations, onshore and offshore, also for very large projects
