Geotechnical Engineering
introduction

SKG Engineering has completed geotechnical investigations throughout San Angelo and all over Texas. Our geotechnical investigations complement our engineering design phases, and construction material testing, which allows us to provide a complete package of services to our clients. SKG Engineering's laobratory is in-house, so our service is even faster than our competition.

The geotechnical Investigations include, but are not limited to, Atterberg Limits, sieve analysis, unconfined compressive strength, and natural moisture contents.  The reports can also include site conditions, site map showing boring locations, logs of borings, groundwater conditions, Potential Vertical Rise estimates, results of lab tests, allowable bearing capacity values, foundation and pavement recommendations, provisions to mitigate the effects of expansive soils, if applicable, engineered and compacted fill material requirements, and construction testing requirements.
