Here we go...First refraction seismic campaign of the year. And many that are being prepared! Great results in the refraction seismic and MASW campaign for a mining company in Spain. The objective of the seismic refraction and MASW survey is to define the values of the speed (Vp and Vs) at which seismic energy travel through soil and rock. The common application of this technique is to estimate rippability before excavation, mapping depth to groundwater and depth bedrock, identification and mapping of faults, calculation of elastic module, assessment of rock quality, mapping thickness of lands...
Present week we will present the articles "Combination of geophysical and geotechnical studies to obtain a model of land in the southern area of Isla Verde" in the VII National Congress of the ATPYC (www.atpyc2018.com), and "Use of essays CPTu in fluvial soft soils of the Río de la Plata "at the 24th Argentine Congress of Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (www.camsig2018.org)....
A new example of the involvement of IGEOTEST with the scientific community. We are proud to cooperate in the FAUCES project, which aims to study the geological risk factors associated with three submarine cannon heads, with our CPT Neptune 5000, aboard the vessel Sarmiento de Gamboa.
