SERVICES RENDERED

GETRENK provides a comprehensive range of specialist geoengineering and environmental consultancy services. All services are delivered by qualified professionals using modern equipment, rigorous methodology, and a commitment to quality assurance.

Feasibility Studies

We prepare initial feasibility reports for projects involving roads, bridges, buildings, and other civil infrastructure. These reports enable clients to assess the merits of various design schemes and establish accurate cost estimates at an early stage, reducing project risk and supporting sound decision-making.

Geotechnical Services

GETRENK provides a full spectrum of geotechnical investigation services using our own GY-150T Drilling Rig and specialist equipment:

  • Mechanical borings (percussion and rotary)
  • Standard Penetration Test (SPT) — disturbed and undisturbed sample collection
  • Cone Penetration Test (CPT)
  • Dynamic Probing Light Test (DPL)
  • Pressuremeter Test
  • Sonic auscultation for pile integrity
  • Other in-situ tests as required
  • Control and supervision of all geotechnical field work

Applications include: foundations for buildings, multi-storey structures, bridges, roads, highways, airports, dams, water towers, oil tanks, and power infrastructure.
