Foundation pile / soil improvement methods, needed as deep excavation and structuring, which are necessary for the contemporary structures increasing both in their height and depth, have become abundant on soft soil as well, are widely used. Because of the high costs involved in the implementation of these methods, a small error in the calculations increases the project costs by a large amount or decreases them in a negative sense (unsafe systems). Consultancy services related to the control of manufacturing / project items to be implemented or prevention of such unsafe systems or over-design products that may occur due to such miscalculation are provided by Sebatek Engineering.

The field and laboratory tests listed below and all of the field-laboratory tests specifically requested apart from these are conducted by Sebatek Engineering. With the help of its authorized engineers, Sebatek Engineering also provides an objective evaluation by on-site observations to the field tests carried out by other companies.
FIELD TESTS
In geotechnical engineering, field tests play an important role. Design values are obtained following the calculations and analysis conducted in the light of theoretical knowledge in the soil/rocky areas with an uncertain and heterogeneous structure. The optimization of these values can be provided as a result of field tests. Additionally, tests are carried out to control performed works.
The main field tests applied are:
- Drilling
- Research Pits
- Standard Penetration Test
- Cone Penetration Test
- Pressuremeter Test
- Plate Loading Test
- Axial Pile Loading Test
- Axial Pile Pulling Test
- Sand Cone Test
- Continuity / Integrity Test
- Geophysical Tests (Resistivity, Seismic Refraction, Seismic Reflection)
