Data collection

AG's approach to geotechnical data collection, encompassing both traditional and digital methods, is driven by a focus on maximising the amount of relevant data from the investigation.

Design and studies

Geotechnical design is undertaken to complement wider studies and support operational planning.  AG looks to work in a collaborative manner wherever possible, in order to ensure clients needs are front and

Operational support

Operational support includes providing assistance to operational and planning personnel, as well as conducting independent
