Ground Investigation

GMX Networks experienced geotechnical engineers, engineering geologists and contaminated land specialists work across the UK on site investigations with a wide spectrum of values. Our clients vary from major residential developers and commercial organisations through infrastructure and transport stakeholders to individual householders.

Our experience and knowledge of the industry ensure we use appropriately experienced and quality driven investigation contractors as well as soil and contamination testing laboratories. This ensures our factual information is compliant with current standards and supports the interpretative and design reporting that we deliver.

GMX Network is always keen to work with clients to develop a standards-compliant investigation which takes account of the end-project design alongside the specific site and project constraints. Indeed, a GMX Network investigation scoping document often forms the first stage in significant whole-project cost savings for our clients. GMX Network can also develop a detailed investigation specification then undertake and review a competitive tender process should the client desire as part of a wider GMX Networks contract management role.

Ground investigation is undertaken using long-term partner contractors who have passed our stringent approved supplier process and meet the relevant quality standards. GMX Network has significant experience of undertaking innovative investigation, tailoring the approach to specific site requirements. This often involves a multi-technique approach across cable percussive, rotary and window sample boreholes, CPTs, trial pits and foundation inspection pits. Sampling is undertaken in accordance with the applicable standards and monitoring installing for a variety for purposes.
