Soil testing is the analysis of soil samples to determine their composition, nutrients, contaminants, and suitability for various uses such as construction, agriculture, or environmental assessment.
Residential soil testing assesses soil conditions on residential properties to ensure they are suitable for construction projects, specifically evaluating aspects critical to foundation stability and regulatory compliance.
Construction soil testing evaluates soil characteristics vital for building projects, focusing on load-bearing capacity, compaction, moisture content, and other factors that influence structural integrity.
Agricultural soil testing examines soil samples from farming areas to determine nutrient content, pH levels, and the presence of contaminants to optimise crop growth and soil management practices.
Site classification involves assessing soil reactivity and movement potential to determine the most appropriate foundation type for construction projects, ensuring building safety and stability.
Soil contamination testing identifies harmful substances in the soil, such as heavy metals, chemicals, and pollutants, to evaluate environmental safety and compliance with regulations.
