Frequently Asked
Geotechnical Engineer questions, answered for Sydney CBD
- When do I need a geotechnical engineer for a Sydney CBD site?
- You need a geotechnical engineer for any Sydney CBD project with excavation deeper than 3 metres, foundations bearing on variable soils, retaining walls or shoring near boundaries, or any construction near Sydney Water or TfNSW assets. Geotechnical engineers run site investigations, classify the soil and rock profile, design foundation systems, and certify ground stability for council DA and CC approvals.
