Geophysical tools have been used for years to locate unknown buried tanks, drums, and other objects, or properly delineate the depth and size of objects at known locations. A combination of at least two geophysical methods typically provides the most accurate interpretation of the location of such materials. … [Read more...]
Geotechnical Geophysics
Geotechnical drilling programs are designed to characterize the subsurface at a project site in order to properly design foundations and avoid any subsurface hazards. However, drilling alone only provides isolated locations where subsurface information is obtained. Performing a geophysical survey at a project site … [Read more...]
Private Utility Locating
Pyramid offers a full range of private utility locating services to delineate and identify depths of buried pipes, conduit, rebar, and other suburface utilities. Our equipment includes ground penetrating radar (GPR) with a range of antenna frequencies to be used depending on the depth and type of structure to be … [Read more...]
Geologic Hazards
Subsurface geologic hazards can pose problems for pre-construction design, the integrity of existing structures, and the general stability of a project site. The utilization of geophysical methods to characterize a site can help to identify unknown hazards, as well as properly delineate existing hazardous features. … [Read more...]
Landfill Geophysics
Proper delineation of the extents of buried debris/materials that are associated with landfill sites can be a serious problem for companies that are planning on re-developing the site, or for environmental concerns associated with the buried materials. Geophysical tools can assist in accurately delineating the depth … [Read more...]
