Testing & geotechnical field records
Proof-load testing, drill logs, hold-point evidence and clear installation records for project close-out.
What it does
Specialist installation is only as useful as the record returned to the project team. Geo Mana undertakes proof-load and acceptance testing where specified, and maintains drill depths, ground observations, grout information, photographs and exceptions through delivery. We can also provide independent witnessing and test records for defined verification scope.
Methodology
How the work runs
Every stage is matched to the engineer’s design and the conditions found on the face.
- 01
Confirm the test method
Design load, equipment, hold times, acceptance criteria, witnessing and reporting requirements are agreed.
- 02
Capture installation data
Setout, depths, ground conditions, materials and relevant exceptions are recorded as the work proceeds.
- 03
Test and witness
Loads and observations are captured against the agreed procedure, including failures or non-conforming results.
- 04
Issue the record
Signed test information and field records are returned promptly for engineering review and close-out.
