Geotechnics
At SOCOTEC, we help our clients with various projects by carrying out geotechnical operations on all kinds of surfaces and materials.
SOCOTEC holds over 40 years of experience in geotechnics. Properly executing a geotechnical survey is essential to the development of any project.
We assist our clients with work on any type of land by carrying out geotechnical testing on all kinds of surfaces throughout their projects.
We own and hold the appropriate certification for all our tools, such as our geotechnical laboratories. We also leverage the most cutting-edge technology to automate the various forms of geotechnical testing used to profile different types of land and materials.
Our geologists possess unique expertise in the execution of all kinds of projects, and the quality of our work speaks to their capacity for analysing and interpreting results.
Talk to our experts
We possess the abilities to handle any project, investigating the subsoil from the initial phase and analysing all kinds of construction and infrastructure project. Our experience includes maritime projects, where we investigate port subsoils, as well as mining.
We therefore harness this knowledge to advise our clients on the most appropriate testing to carry out for different materials and at different depths, as well as which data is required at any time, and continuously adapt our work in line with their final requirements.
BIM
The inclusion of BIM in our processes
The inclusion of BIM methodology in our processes is a fundamental tool that enables us to fully join the project right from the start and on equal footing with all other parts of the project.
What’s more, our field and laboratory technicians can digitise any part of the process to ensure that information is shared simply and efficiently, saving time and improving traceability.

Our geotechnical department specialises in highly precise geotechnics, and on-site tests are crucial. The team executes all kinds of studies and campaigns in situ, providing valuable information regarding the subsoil materials that can then be analysed and harnessed throughout the project. On-site analysis and data collection is used in conjunction with information produced by the geotechnical laboratory, where SOCOTEC facilities are used to test different soil samples that will then be used in the final report.
