Commercial Development
Building a Commercial Structure? We’re Here to Help
Whether you’re constructing a commercial building or expanding an existing one, it’s essential to understand the challenges posed by deep excavations, heavy loads, and proximity to property boundaries.
At KGA, we provide expert geotechnical services to navigate these complexities efficiently, ensuring your project gets off to the right start.
Engaging a Geotechnical Engineer. Why early is best
Engage a geotechnical engineer early in your project to save time, minimise risks, and avoid unexpected costs. Identifying potential issues like shallow rock layers, water bearing sands, or weak ground early on can help refine the design and prevent costly foundation adjustments later.
We offer proactive advice that can keep your project on track.
Our Geotechnical Services
We offer a wide range of services to support your commercial building project from the ground up. Our expertise covers everything from initial subsurface exploration to final retaining wall design.
Subsurface Exploration
Assessing shallow soils and underlying rock formations.
Numerical Modelling
For accurate wall deflection predictions when excavating near boundaries.
Dewatering & Settlement Calculations
Addressing effects of high loads on soft soils.
Ground Improvement
Techniques to enhance soil stability for construction.
Retaining Wall Design
Ensuring safety and stability in boundary-adjacent excavations.
