GEOTECHNICAL DESKSTOP STUDY FOR SOLAR PROJECTS

Our team will conduct a thorough review of the site’s topography and existing studies. This initial assessment helps in understanding the site's geological and geotechnical context. Our study includes a general assessment of the site, analyzing topographic and geological maps, reviewing existing data on soil types and geological formations.

OUR SERVICES

There are several reasons why a Geotechnical desk study is necessary for a pre-feasibility investigation, including:

​

1. Identifying potential hazards

The desk study can identify potential geological hazards such as karstic features, subsidence, or ground instability that may affect the proposed construction. This information can be used to determine whether the site is suitable for development and to plan appropriate mitigation measures.

​

2. Assessing soil conditions

The study can provide an overview of the soil conditions on the site, including soil type, depth, and composition. This information can be used to evaluate the site’s suitability for different types of foundations, excavation, and earthworks.

​

3.Estimating costs

The desk study can provide early estimates of the costs associated with site preparation and construction. This information can help project managers to determine the overall feasibility of the project and to budget accordingly.

​

4. Compliance with regulations

The study can ensure that the proposed project complies with local regulations and guidelines regarding geological and geotechnical conditions. This can include requirements for environmental impact assessments, geotechnical testing, and other site investigations.
