Geotechnical Investigation
Geotechnical Investigation is a part of Civil Engineering which deals with the technical behavioral properties of earth related materials. A Geotechnical investigation project ideally begins with a survey of underlying materials and their physical, mechanical and chemical properties. SGAPL holds market leadership position across India in organized geotechnical investigation sector. We are one of the leading Geotechnical Engineering Companies in India and are capable of providing all related engineering value additions ranging from Field Investigations, Field Testing, Laboratory Testing, ND Testing and Analysis as well as Foundation Consultancy, Construction and Piling. We have own Soil Mechanics Laboratory located at R. N. Tagore Road, Makhla, Uttarpara (Near Dankuni), Hooghly, where testing is conducted on soil, rock and water samples. We are IS/ISO 9001:2008 certified for engineering qualities.
