GEOTECHNICS

BUT Géologie positions itself as your preferred partner for conducting preliminary analyses for mineral exploration projects. These analyses cover all operations necessary to acquire the knowledge required to evaluate a mineral deposit both qualitatively and quantitatively. In addition, our expertise extends to road construction and civil engineering projects.

For geotechnical projects, our approach aims to measure or determine the following parameters:

  • Lithostratiography and subsurface geomorphology.
  • Content of exploitable substances.
  • Soil permeability.
  • Bearing capacity of the soil (penetration tests, cavity detection, pressuremeter tests, etc.).
  • Design and sizing of wastewater or treated water infiltration systems (dispersion drains, infiltration beds, or mounds).
  • Identification of karstic zones.
  • Design and sizing of foundation and retaining structures.
  • Monitoring and supervision of geotechnical investigation works.
  • On-site technical support.
