Our Core Services
Hand Augers
Our hand auger services are ideal for shallow soil investigations, offering a cost-effective and efficient method for collecting soil samples in various terrains. We adhere to the NZS 4402 standards for soil testing, ensuring that our hand auger operations provide accurate and reliable data for your geotechnical and environmental assessments.
Scala Penetrometer Testing
Scala penetrometer testing is crucial for assessing soil strength and compaction levels. Our team conducts these tests in accordance with the NZS 4402 standards, providing essential data for foundation design, earthworks, and pavement construction. This service is particularly valuable for small to medium-sized projects requiring quick and accurate soil strength measurements.
Cone Penetrometer Testing (CPT), CPTu, DMT, and sDMT Soundings
LDE offers advanced Cone Penetrometer Testing (CPT) and related testing services, including CPTu (piezocone), DMT (flat dilatometer), and sDMT (seismic dilatometer). These tests provide detailed profiles of soil stratigraphy, strength, and behavior. Our CPT services are conducted in compliance with ISO 22476 standards, ensuring that your project benefits from high-quality subsurface data.
Fully Cored Boreholes
For projects requiring deep and detailed subsurface investigations, our fully cored borehole services provide comprehensive data on soil and rock formations. We use state-of-the-art drilling equipment to extract continuous core samples, adhering to the NZS 4411 standards for drilling operations. This service is essential for geotechnical analysis, foundation design, and environmental assessments.
Core Logging Services
Accurate core logging is essential for interpreting geological conditions and making informed decisions about your project. Our geologists provide meticulous core logging services, documenting the physical and mechanical properties of the core samples. We follow the NZS 4403 guidelines, ensuring that our core logs are detailed, accurate, and useful for your engineering and construction needs.
