We are a geotechnical consultancy that carries out geotechnical and engineering geologic investigations for private, commercial and crown projects. These include infrastructural works, site remediation, commercial and residential construction and development. We are Canterbury based, however, our investigations take place New Zealand wide.
At TerraForma we enjoy working closely with our clients and their chosen consultants to ensure we achieve practical solutions that fit the design requirements. We take pride in our work and ensure care is given at all stages.
Engineering geology is associated with the application of geology to engineering design and construction.
Geotechnical investigations are carried out to assess the properties of rock and soil for hazard assessment, construction and/or design purposes.
In parts of New Zealand, liquefaction assessment is required to support design and mitigate risks associated with seismic hazard.
