TMK provides a comprehensive geotechnical advice service. For over 35 years, we have been conducting ground investigations for all types of infrastructure and construction projects. Our multi-disciplinary team is uniquely placed to provide thorough geotechnical engineering services for all stages of your project from conception to completion.
We have provided geotechnical engineering services on a broad range of projects, including infrastructure, multi-storey buildings, housing developments, community facilities, heritage building adaptations, healthcare and medical facilities, shopping centres, aged care facilities and private residential projects.
We have developed a valuable resource by recording the results of our geotechnical investigations in our in-house database, TMK Soils Map.
