Our areas of expertise
Earthworks and geotechnical engineering for road building
Are you a developer – public or private? A contractor specialising in earthworks or external works?
Does your project concern the introduction of a high-frequency bus line or the creation or widening or linear road or rail infrastructure? Does it concern the maintenance or laying of paved roadways or stone surfacing? Or maybe it is situated in a housing estate or business park and you need to do a diagnosis of an existing roadway or one that is due to be laid, or some future drains?
Whatever the dimensions or timeframe for your project, our aim is to make your earthworks project more reliable by mobilising all our skills and resources in instrumentation, controls and testing, technical assistance and construction monitoring.
From the study phase through to the works phase, we can support you with an organisation totally dedicated to the earthworks and the geotechnical engineering for road building.
The experience of our technicians and engineers, combined with the technical and human resources of Fondasol Group means we can meet all your earthworks requirements.
The interactions and synergies that we can set up between the different areas of competence in Fondasol Group guarantee rapid responses and an exhaustive overview of the issues involved in your project.
We can support you in many different areas of your project: re-use of materials from the site, stability (excavation/backfill), consolidation settlement, treatment of soils (base course), vibration during the works (instrumentation), but also management of geosynthetic and geotextile materials, etc. We carry out monitoring and control (opinions on documents or variants), and, when necessary, we can quickly mobilise our geotechnical laboratory.
We are able to accompany you through to the dimensioning of the pavement (using software like Alizé). We carry the aggregate sourcing and compliance studies as well as monitoring its use, controlling the works and the compliance of the products during the construction phases. We work for contracting authorities as well as for contractors.
We carry out the suitability tests on the concrete at the mixing plant as well as the concrete quality control - including concrete mix designs for our agencies in Africa. Where necessary, we bring in our experts specialised in structural studies.
We carry out external control work on backfilling and pavement laying, as well as monitoring the installation of underground infrastructure (quality of backfilling, waterproofing, video inspection – with the possibility of bringing in teams dedicated to Detection of subsurface utilities).
Do you have project to build a landfill centre?
We monitor the setting up of the site and carry out the permeability checks necessary to ensure the success of your project, in conjunction with or experts specialised in Hydrogeology.
