Geotechnics and ground investigations

Instrumentation

For geotechnical and ground investigations sector, LIM can propose a complete solution from on-site data acquisition to a comprehensive final report incorporating drilling parameters and L. Ménard type pressuremeter test results (NFP 94-110.1).

In terms of on-site data acquisition, LIM can propose a comprehensive range of instrumentation solutions :

The FORALIM 4G for the display and recording of drilling parameters ;
The PRESSIOLIM 4G for carrying out and recroding L.Ménard type pressuremeter tests to NFP 94-110.1 ;
The GEOLIM 4G unit combining the functions of both the FORALIM 4G and PRESSIOLIM 4G.

On-site data acquired by these different instruments are easily transferred to a PC for processing with a view to producing a comprehensive geotechnical borehole report. The final report can also incorporate external data - such as other geotechnical on-site or laboratory tests.

The PRESSIO module of our GEO-LOG 3 application automates the processing of L.Ménard pressuremeter test data according to standard NFP 94-110.1, incorporating the determination of the pressuremeter modulus, the limit pressure and the creep pressure.

GEO-LOG 3: thanks to its powerful Microsoft Access database architecture, allows the creation of a global borehole file containing any type and format of geotechnical data.
