Anticipating and preventing natural or anthropogenic hazards and impacts

Whether your project is a conversion or a construction project, it must take its geological environment into consideration.

Only a good knowledge of that environment will allow you to anticipate and prevent natural or anthropogenic risks (landslides, rockfalls, cavities), to assess the incidence and impact of the geological environment on the planned structure and validate its feasibility, quality and sustainability or guarantee good management of the calendar and costs of the project.

The same knowledge will include precise information about a complex geology, so to enrich the relevance of the geotechnical model that will be proposed.

Our team of geologists will support you with these different aspects and work in synergy with our complementary, related expert departments on your project whenever it is necessary.

The benefits to you

Comprehensive support from the reconnaissance phase through to the monitoring of the work, to guarantee the security of your sites and structures
Interactions and professional synergies guaranteeing responsiveness and an overall vision of the issues of the site (technical, financial, regulatory, health-related)
A recognised technical and scientific department, guaranteeing you quality and reliability

Your problem

The support we provide

Ahead of any project

Ahead of any intervention, addressing any geological hazards in the zone where your project is located
Guiding the geophysical and/or geotechnical investigations in order to identify the precise contours (e.g. a campaign of geophysical investigations if there are suspicions of cavities)
G1 site study or G5 diagnostic mission

To clarify a complex geological context

We provide you with a detailed understanding of the geological model for greater relevance in the definition of the geotechnical model

To validate the feasibility of a project in relation to a natural risk

We identify the existence of any major hazards with regard to the natural risk the site or in the vicinity of the project
Depending on the analysis, we help you to decide the future of your project

Examples of missions where there was a rock-related issue

Structural analysis/approach: as part of the project, to identify the fracture mechanisms and dimension any reinforcements based on the analysis of the orientation of the discontinuities affecting the rock

Examples of missions where subsidence occurred

We determine the origin and type of the cavity (natural or anthropogenic)
Where appropriate, we devise a programme of investigations adapted to the issue identified
