Scope of work tailored to the project<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t <p>We will contact you regarding the location, proposed project, budget, and other important information,\n\t\t\t\t\tso that we can perform a preliminary desktop site review and\/or topological survey. Once this is\n\t\t\t\t\tcomplete, we can recommend specific subsurface exploration techniques, unique to your project.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<h4>2. Subsurface exploration<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t <p>We will collaborate with you and decide which tests are the most suitable for your project based on our\n\t\t\t\t\tpreliminary tests, the budget, local laws and policies.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<h4>3. Laboratory testing of samples<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t <p>We will take the samples we collected from the subsurface exploration and analyze them in an off-site\n\t\t\t\t\tlab.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<h4>4. Identify foundation loading conditions<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t <p>In this step, we identify the loading foundations of the structure such as the weight that will likely be put\n\t\t\t\t\ton the site. From this information, we can decide the foundation type to be used.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<h4>5. Geotechnical report with recommendations<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t <p>We will provide you with an exhaustive report containing our recommendations regarding your site, and\n\t\t\t\t\tschedule a time to sit down and discuss our options.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<h4>6.
