ETTL Engineers & Consultants Inc.

Contract Drilling Services for Construction (Geotechnical) Projects

If you are planning to construct a building, bridge, road, parking lot, airport runway or other structure, and want to learn what subsurface conditions to expect at your prospective construction site, ETTL's exploratory rigs are available to take samples for physical (geotechnical) analysis, thereby enabling your architects, engineers and contractors to know what soils and rock formations are underneath and what the ground-water and moisture conditions are. Our crews also can install piezometers for precise measurement of ground-water levels.

Samples are submitted either to you, the client, for analysis and use in your own geotechnical studies, or the samples can be tested by ETTL's soils laboratories on a contract basis with laboratory findings submitted to you, or they can be tested and analyzed by ETTL's own geotechnical engineering staff with resulting foundation recommendations submitted to you.

For information about ETTL's exploratory drilling services for your construction projects, contact John Battle or James Aldredge.
