Every construction project starts with a question:
What lies below the ground?
The success of a foundation depends on understanding the subsurface conditions before excavation begins. Unexpected rock strata, groundwater zones, cavities, or weak soil pockets can affect project timelines, excavation methods, and construction costs.
An ERT (Electrical Resistivity Tomography) Survey is a geophysical investigation technique used to study underground conditions without excavation. The survey helps engineers identify variations in subsurface layers and plan further geotechnical investigations more effectively.
ERT surveys are commonly used for:
✔ Residential Projects
✔ Commercial Buildings
✔ Industrial Developments
✔ Warehouses
✔ Infrastructure Projects
✔ Roads and Utilities
