Geotechnical Investigation for Subdivision Development
Project Summary
ND Geosciences provided comprehensive geotechnical engineering services for proposed subdivision development in Witchekan Lake First Nation, Saskatchewan. The investigation program included borehole drilling, soil sampling, in-situ testing, and laboratory analysis to characterize subsurface soil conditions and groundwater regime across the site.
Services Provided
- Borehole drilling and soil sampling
- In-situ testing and laboratory analysis
- Groundwater regime characterization
- Shallow foundation design recommendations
- Site grading and earthwork guidance
- Subgrade preparation specifications
Key Highlights
Subsurface Characterization
Comprehensive investigation program including borehole drilling, soil sampling, in-situ testing, and laboratory analysis across the development site.
Shallow Foundation Systems
Detailed recommendations for strip and spread footings as well as grade-supported slab construction for residential infrastructure.
Risk Mitigation
Assessment to mitigate risks related to settlement, frost susceptibility, and moisture sensitivity for long-term performance.
Earthwork Procedures
Guidance for below-grade structures, site grading, subgrade preparation, and compaction requirements.
