In-house Geotechnical Laboratory
Our in-house geotechnical lab provides fast, accurate soil and rock testing, while our specialised freezing lab performs advanced tests on frozen samples for ground-freezing applications.
Solutions for Complex Subsurface Challenges
Solutions for Complex Subsurface Challenges
Digital Planning with BIM
We use Building Information Modeling (BIM) and digital engineering tools to optimise your projects in real time. This approach enhances transparency, cost control, and sustainability throughout the entire construction process.
Ground Freezing
For complex excavations and tunnelling projects, we rely on artificial ground freezing – a precise, safe, and environmentally friendly method for temporary stabilisation.
Finite Element and Numerical Methods
Our 2D and 3D modeling ensures structural stability, load capacity and deformation control – enabling robust planning and approvals.
Turn Your Challenges into Stable Solutions.
Our geotechnical experts at CDM Smith combine interdisciplinary expertise, cutting-edge technology, and innovation to deliver holistic solutions. The result: maximum safety, efficiency, and planning quality – from analysis to implementation.
Groundbreaking Solutions For Every Soil Challenge
Our geotechnical experts at CDM Smith deliver safe, sustainable and innovative solutions for demanding construction projects. From initial concept to final implementation, we support you with interdisciplinary expertise, cutting-edge technology and a deep understanding of the interaction between structure and soil.
Our services range from soil investigations and foundation consultancy to the design of complex specialist foundation and tunnelling projects. We employ modern techniques such as ground freezing and numerical modeling to ensure stability and cost efficiency.
Additional services include excavation and dewatering concepts, slope and embankment stabilization, geotechnical measurements, as well as on-site construction supervision and quality assurance. We plan, review, and manage projects of any size – reliably, efficiently, and to the highest quality standards. In doing so, we lay the foundation for safe and durable infrastructure.
Our selected project examples showcase the full breadth of our geotechnical expertise in action.
