How We Might Relate To Your Project

Soil borings are made for construction projects and environmental studies. Soil borings tell us about the composition of the soil and help you make building design decisions. These projects and studies sometimes require other drilling related activities including rock coring, the installation of monitoring wells, piezometers, lysimeters, gas probes and inclinometers.

What if I require field testing?

Depending on the project, you might require field and laboratory testing for soils, concrete and bituminous pavement. Through these services we generate engineering reports for foundation design, hydrogeological, environmental studies based on the field and laboratory results. These help give factual insights to clients and inform construction decisions.

Do you offer other services?

Sometimes you might also need floor flatness checks, welding inspection, phase 1 or 2 environmental site assessments, or asbestos building surveys. Well, we do that too!

How fast will I get my report?

Besides good ole' fashioned paper, TSC has been continuously working to incorporate technology into our systems to make the time between testing and reporting smaller and smaller. From field technicians entering data on tablets to laboratory data being processed through our own finely tuned software, everything is being optimized to make things faster so you don't have to wait longer than you should for your report.

We even have our own document delivery system that will notify you when you have a document from us. It allows you to not only get reports faster, but even let's you look back on previous projects.

What does that mean for you?

All of these technological improvements lead to faster reporting delivered right to your email. We also offer other delivery methods if something would be more convenient for you.

When choosing TSC, project management becomes easier as your geotechnical engineering, materials testing, environmental, and contract drilling needs are all met in one place. That way you don't have to go hunting around for a bunch of different companies to satisfy your requirements. Whether you have a large building in Chicago or a small job out in the middle of nowhere, TSC has the staff and drive to get it done.
