Geotechnical and geophysical tests

Through monitoring, measurements and instrumentation (AMI), AGTS supports you throughout the various phases of your project studies and monitoring. In the field of AMI, AGTS offers a wide range of services including monitoring of structures, geophysical studies, topography, bathymetry and instrumentation.  Various methods are available for these assignments, and will be used depending on the objective of the study, the customer's time and budget constraints, and site constraints such as access.

A geotechnical survey is a useful and cost-effective step before starting a construction project. The geotechnician applies his or her knowledge and know-how to ensure the proper realization, optimization and safety of the project to be carried out. Whether for the construction of buildings, bridges, roads, freeways, tunnels, dykes, quays, viaducts, canals, dams, retaining walls, jetties, breakwaters, groins, gabions, riprap, airports, ports, power plants..., the expertise of a geotechnician is essential and beneficial. AGTS provides engineering support throughout your project, from design to completion, to help you better understand the behavior of all types of soil and groundwater.

Whether destructive or not, materials testing provides an exhaustive picture of the description of material properties. These tests are therefore a perfect tool for gaining a better understanding of materials, and in turn data that facilitates decision-making on a given project.

Apave in Africa can help you identify your responsibilities and the necessary actions, taking into account regulatory and administrative constraints.

Rely on AGTS to manage the risks associated with materials testing and ensure responsible operations that comply with current regulations.

The aim of mineral exploration is to discover new deposits or unknown extensions of deposits. A deposit is a concentration of one or more useful substances that can be exploited.

The various stages of mineral exploration are: a review of existing information or documentary and historical analysis, reconnaissance exploration, detailed exploration, exploration evaluation and drilling campaign.

For these different stages, AGTS can assist you with various exploration techniques, including geological mapping, geochemical analysis, geophysical methods and drilling (core drilling, RC, etc.).
