|---|---|---|---|---|
| A Dolomite stability and Geotechnical Investigation For development of multi Dwelling Units (apartments) in Clayville Midrand. | March 2023 | Geotechnical and Dolomite Investigation | A stability and geotechnical investigation of the dolomite was conducted by percussion drilling, profiling of test pits, DCP testing, laboratory analysis of Atterberg boundaries and grain size distribution. A report on the stability and geotechnical investigation of the dolomite was prepared at the conclusion of the project. The report was approved by the Council for Geoscience, the Municipality and the NHBRC. | |
| A Dolomite stability and Geotechnical Investigation For development Tailings dam pump station in Westonaria, Johannesburg. | May 2022 | Geotechnical and Dolomite Investigation | A stability and geotechnical investigation of the dolomite was conducted by percussion drilling, profiling of test pits, laboratory analysis of Atterberg boundaries and grain size distribution. A report on the stability and geotechnical investigation of the dolomite was prepared at the conclusion of the project. The report was approved by the Council for Geoscience and local Municipality. | |
| Geotechnical and geo hydrological study for extension of cemetery yard at Mafikeng, Northwest Provence | November 2022 | Geotechnical and Dolomite Investigation | The geotechnical investigation was performed by profiling the test pits, DCP test, laboratory analysis of Atterberg limits and grain size distribution. Groundwater was evaluated through a hydrocensus survey that determined geohydrologic parameters of surrounding boreholes and surface waters. A geotechnical and geohydrological report was prepared in support of the cemetery expansion. | |

| Geotechnical and geohydrological investigation for the proposed resort at Dullstroom in Emakhazeni Municipality, Mpumalanga Province | April 2022 | Geotechnical and Dolomite Investigation | The proposed resort will include a two-story building, roads, a swimming pool, and a dam, and the water supply will come from an existing borehole. Geotechnical investigation was performed by profiling test pits, DCP testing, laboratory analysis including pH and conductivity, CBR, foundation and road indicators. Groundwater was evaluated through a hydrocensus survey, flood line delineation, and aquifer yield testing. A geotechnical and geohydrological report and was approved by the Council for Geoscience, the Municipality and the NHBRC. | |
| A dolomitic stability and geotechnical investigation for the construction of a two-story rental dwelling in Vosloorus, Ekurhuleni, Johannesburg. | May 2022 | Geotechnical and Dolomite Investigation | A stability and geotechnical investigation of the dolomite was conducted by percussion drilling, profiling of test pits, DCP testing, laboratory analysis of Atterberg boundaries and grain size distribution. A report on the stability and geotechnical investigation of the dolomite was prepared at the conclusion of the project. The report was approved by the Council for Geoscience, the Municipality and the NHBRC. | |
