Studying, optimising and controlling soil-structure interactions

In just a few years, several phenomena have converged to make geotechnical engineering a bigger factor than ever in the success of your projects.

The land available nowadays is more complex than before, construction technologies are changing, environmental regulations necessarily play a more prominent role, as do financial issues.

As geotechnical engineers, we cannot ignore these developments and the impacts they are having on the question of the interactions between soil and structures.

To rise to these new challenges whilst ensuring our technical expertise remains accessible, we have developed our approach to offer you comprehensive, innovative and pragmatic solutions

Multi-skill-based processes, optimisation and decision support tools, BIM are just some of the developments that we have taken on board to enrich the way we approach your projects.

Optimised solutions...

As geotechnical engineers, we are the privileged partner you need to implement a comprehensive approach covering the entire geotechnical value chain, taking in all the stages in the construction of your building or structure following the sequence of missions defined in standard NF P94-500.

That means having a single contact person all the way through your project.

Their task as soon as you make your request is to:

  • Estimate and optimise the campaign of investigations and laboratory tests necessary to the estimated and known needs of the project 
  • Develop a comprehensive approach and activate the multi-disciplinary areas of expertise necessary to fully understand and/or conduct the project from the investigation phase onwards, in order to carry out the field campaign with the cooperation of all the branches involved

Then, in the design and works phases:

  • To study the best scenarios with regard to the geotechnical influence zone and the synthesis of the data acquired as well as the technical, regulatory, financial and timing issues 
  • To accompany and continue to optimise the project in the works and control phases

... thanks to an innovative comprehensive approach

  • The solutions proposed by our geotechnical engineers are based on an approach that has been rethought in terms of both vision and tools.

    Focused on pragmatism and optimisation with regard to the hazards involved, but also responsiveness with regard to the multi-disciplinary nature of our approach, this approach promoted by our general management, our operational management and our technical management relies on:

    • 15 technical areas of expertise (geotechnical engineering, hydrogeology, polluted sites and soils, geophysics, natural risks, detection of underground infrastructure, topography, structures, etc.) and as many interactions and synergies between these branches facilitating a global understanding of the issues of a given site and allowing the proposal of an exhaustive and efficient solution
    • Solscore, our decision aid tool, can help provide you with technical orientations without carrying out campaigns of investigations when purchasing a plot of land, and a targeted, optimised campaign of investigations when you have a construction in your sights, thanks to the depth and range of our database
    • A comprehensive digital transformation programme aimed at streamlining the exploitation of our data, from their acquisition in the field through to visualisation and the production of digital mock-ups
