- Laboratory index testing: Atterberg limits (ASTM D4318), moisture content (ASTM D2216)
- Moisture-density relationships and bearing evaluation for foundations and pavements
- Expansive-soil characterization for slab and pavement design
- Construction-phase verification: proof rolls, subgrade acceptance, fill placement observation
FAQ · Bowling Green
Do I need a geotechnical report before building?

How long does a geotechnical investigation take?
A typical light-commercial site runs one to two weeks from drilling to final report, depending on lab test turnaround and access conditions.
