Geotechnical Methods

Certerra Subsurface applies a range of geotechnical drilling methods to support engineering design, foundation assessments, and long-term site monitoring. Each method is selected with purpose, and our crews install instruments and complete geotechnical borings with the precision needed to produce dependable subsurface data for engineering decisions.

Our team installs Inclinometers to measure subsurface movement and support deformation and settlement monitoring programs.

We install piezometers to measure groundwater pressures, supporting foundation design and long-term geotechnical monitoring.

Sampling probes collect vapor-phase data for geotechnical evaluations, environmental screening, and site characterization needs.

Dig Deeper Into Geotechnical Drilling

Learn more about how geotechnical drilling supports engineering design, what to expect on-site, and how careful drilling practices provide the subsurface information needed for confident project decisions.

Geotechnical drilling collects subsurface information used for engineering design, foundation evaluations, instrumentation installation, and long-term site performance assessments.

The method depends on project goals, soil conditions, required instrumentation, and engineering specifications. Certerra reviews each site to recommend the most suitable approach.

Duration varies by depth, geology, number of borings, and instrumentation needs. Smaller programs may require one day; more complex investigations take longer.

Certerra’s crews follow strict safety practices, stabilize boreholes properly, and manage cuttings responsibly to protect personnel, structures, and surrounding environments.
