Reporting

Solum Saxum Consultants provide expert geotechnical solutions, from desk-based Preliminary Risk Assessments to complex site investigations, ground-structure interactions, and geotechnical design.

We ensure your project starts with a solid foundation - built on expertise, precision, and reliability.

What we offer

  1. Summary of site conditions and ground investigation results.
  2. Risk assessment for contamination and geotechnical hazards.
  3. Geotechnical recommendations (e.g., shallow vs. deep foundations).
  4. Remediation strategies if contamination is found.
  5. Recommendations for Further monitoring or additional investigations.

Geotechnical Recommendations

  • Foundation Design: Suitable foundation types (e.g., shallow footings, piled foundations).
  • Soil Improvement: If weak soils are present, recommendations for soil stabilisation.
  • Slope Stability & Earthworks: Considerations for cut-and-fill or retaining structures.
  • Drainage & Groundwater Control: Measures to manage high groundwater or poor drainage.

Contamination & Environmental Risk Management

  • Human Health Risks: Assessment of contaminants and exposure pathways.
  • Remediation Requirements: If contamination is found, suggested remediation strategies (e.g., soil excavation, capping, treatment).
  • Controlled Waters Protection: Recommendations to prevent pollution of groundwater and surface water.
  • Waste Classification & Disposal: Guidance on handling and disposing of excavated materials.

Further Investigation & Monitoring

Additional Testing: If uncertainties remain, recommendations for further boreholes, sampling, or monitoring.

Long-Term Monitoring: If gas or groundwater issues are present, a plan for continued observation.
