ANKITGEO SERVICES provides comprehensive mineral exploration services aimed at discovering, assessing, and harnessing valuable mineral resources. Here’s an overview of ANKITGEO SERVICES mineral exploration services:
ANKIT GEO SERVICES Geotechnical Investigation Methods
Borehole Drilling:
Utilizing specialized equipment, borehole drilling facilitates the extraction of soil and rock samples from varying depths. These samples are crucial for comprehending soil composition and properties.
Standard Penetration Test (SPT):
An in-situ test, SPT measures the relative density of granular soils by driving a split-spoon sampler into the ground and recording penetration blows.
Cone Penetration Test (CPT):
CPT measures soil resistance and provides data on soil properties and stratigraphy by inserting a cone-shaped probe into the ground at a constant rate.
Soil Sampling and Laboratory Testing:
Collected soil samples undergo meticulous analysis in geotechnical laboratories, determining their physical and chemical properties for material selection and design validation.
Geophysical Surveys:
Advanced methods like ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and seismic surveys assess subsurface conditions, offering insights into soil layers, voids, and groundwater without drilling.
Plate Load Test:
This test assesses soil bearing capacity by applying known loads to a surface plate, determining its ability to support structures.
Pressuremeter Test:
Pressuremeter tests evaluate soil compressibility and shear strength by applying pressure to measure the soil’s response.
Vane Shear Test:
Determines cohesive soil shear strength by rotating a vane in the ground to measure resistance to shearing.
Percussion Drilling:
Involves a heavy hammer driving a drill bit into the ground to collect disturbed soil samples.
Shelby Tube Sampling:
Uses Shelby tubes to collect relatively undisturbed soil samples, crucial for studying soil structure and properties.
Seismic Refraction Test:
Determines subsurface layer depth and velocity using seismic waves, aiding in assessing bedrock depth and void identification.
Cross-Hole Sonic Logging:
Measures borehole quality and integrity, particularly in rock or concrete structures.
Trenching:
Involves digging trenches to expose subsurface materials, providing insights into shallow-depth soil and rock characteristics.
Coring:
Core drilling extracts cylindrical rock or soil samples, valuable for studying rock properties and stratigraphy.
Geotechnical Instrumentation:
Instruments like inclinometers and piezometers monitor ground movement, water pressure, and other parameters within boreholes over time.
ANKITGEO SERVICES Customizing its geotechnical investigation methods to match project-specific needs ensures a thorough grasp of subsurface conditions. These tailored methods are pivotal for the safe and efficient planning and execution of projects spanning diverse industries and sectors.
