Geotechnical Engineering

AllRock’s geotechnical engineers in Ontario and Newfoundland and Labrador support clients throughout the entire life cycle of a project—from the pre-construction phase through to design reviews, inspections, and ongoing assessments. We help uncover and understand the ground conditions beneath a site, recognizing that the foundation of successful construction begins with what lies beneath the surface.

Our geotechnical engineers maintain close collaboration with clients during the design phases, ensuring they possess all the crucial geotechnical data required. This information serves a dual purpose, as not only does it facilitate the creation of designs that are functional, safe, and tailored to the unique conditions of the site, but it also addresses potential challenges and obstacles in advance. This significantly reduces the likelihood of encountering unforeseen complications during the construction phase. This proactive approach is instrumental in ensuring projects remain on their projected timelines and within the allocated budget.

Over the years, AllRock has garnered a stellar reputation for its diverse range of geotechnical services. Among the numerous projects we’ve undertaken, some of the noteworthy ones include geotechnical investigations in St. John’s, advanced PDA testing in Toronto, and geotechnical investigations in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). Our track record speaks volumes about our commitment to excellence and our ability to deliver precise, reliable, and valuable insights that pave the way for successful construction projects.
