Geotechnical and Foundation Engineering

Project Overview

The Geotechnical and Foundation Engineering project focuses on providing expert geotechnical services and foundation design solutions for multiple infrastructure projects across Ontario. With a project value of over $10 million, the initiative involves assessing soil conditions, designing foundation systems, and ensuring the structural integrity of construction sites. The services are critical for ensuring that foundations are designed and built to support the long-term stability and safety of infrastructure developments.

Scope of Work

RECCMOX is responsible for overseeing all aspects of geotechnical and foundation engineering, from the initial site assessments to the design and implementation of the foundation systems. The project includes extensive site investigations, design of foundation structures, and ensuring the safe and efficient installation of these systems. Each project requires a tailored approach to address unique site conditions and construction requirements.
