PSM offers a wide range of engineering geology services to a diverse array of clients. Our team of experienced engineering geologists understand that success depends on a detailed understanding of the geological conditions and natural processes beneath the site. Our extensive expertise combined with contemporary technology and tools help to develop accurate investigations, models and solutions for our clients.
Decades of engineering geology investigation
Our engineering geological services are designed to provide clients with a thorough and accurate assessment of their site.. The work our engineering geologists can have substantial economic and risk impacts with respect to the feasibility and success of projects. It can affect the health, safety and welfare of the public and the environment. Our services include:
- Site investigation programs: We design, supervise and carry out a comprehensive geotechnical and hydrogeological investigations to understand the geological and geotechnical conditions prevailing at the site
- Engineering geology and geomorphological mapping: We undertake geological and geomorphological mapping to develop interpretive engineering geological models for planning, design, construction and rehabilitation for civil and mining infrastructure elements.
- Geological and structural modelling: Our team develop comprehensive models to predict the impact of the site’s geological features relevant to your project
- Geological hazard (geohazard) assessment: As part of our assessments, we assess the risk of natural phenomena such as landslides and earthquakes at the site, as well as the probability of liquefaction. We undertake risk assessment and risk mitigation designs for a variety of geological and natural hazards for land-use planning, infrastructure design and construction, and remediation.
In order to achieve these results, we use a number of technologies and techniques, such as:
- Remote sensing using photogrammetry and geophysics: This technology helps us inspect, record and interpret sites difficult to physically reach or those which cover large geographical extents.
- GIS applications: We use these programs to develop our mapping, site records, ground interpretations and produce our models.
- 3D geological and structural models: These modelling techniques provide visual representations of the subsurface at the site, aiding in the risk assessment and decision making process.
- DIscrete fracture network (DFN) analysis: This technique helps us analyse the fracture networks of the rock based on our assessment of the geological units, , shaping the recommendations of the investigation.
