PSM offers a range of dam foundation assessment services, including site investigation, geotechnical modelling, 3D digital models, foundation design, slope design and seismic design. Our team of geotechnical engineers and engineering geologists specialise in completing complex and detailed geotechnical models that enable accurate foundation design and assessment. Defining the ground conditions and geotechnical risks of dam foundations is a critical component in ensuring dam safety, stability and performance as per regulatory and industry requirements.
Dam Foundation Assessment
PSM has a well-established record of undertaking investigations, developing geotechnical and hydrogeological models, providing geotechnical interpretation and designing civil and dam foundations. Our team of experts use the latest technology and sophisticated modelling techniques to assess and communicate the subsurface conditions of the project site.
We provide a number of services to assess dam foundations, including:
- Geotechnical investigation off new and existing dam sites.
- Development of geotechnical models and parameters for foundation design and assessment off embankment and concrete dams.
- Provision of geotechnical inputs to dam design.
- Design and numerical modelling of dam foundation stability and performance.
- Communication of ground risks to asset owners and other stakeholders.
- Understanding of ANCOLD and other regulatory requirements across Australia.

All part of a greater collection of dam capabilities
PSM offers a range of services to assess the foundations of dams throughout the planning, construction and operations phases.
Our design and analysis services help to identify and manage ground risks. As part of the process, we ensure the project meets the strictest local and international regulations.
We offer construction phase services to validate the foundation ground model, respond to unexpected conditions and ensure the project is built to the outlined design specifications..
PSM provides a number of other services related to the design, construction and operation of dams, including complex numerical modelling, monitoring, providing operating manuals and conducting reviews of dam performance.
We are also able to assist in geotechnical aspects of dam closure and decommissioning.
