Ground You Can Build On.
Beneath the Surface. Beyond the Standard.
Stratum Geo specialises in engineering geological investigations, dolomite risk management and structural ground rehabilitation, helping developers and asset owners establish whether ground is safe and suitable for development and how geological risks should be managed.
Core services
Investigation, remediation, and lifelong risk management.
Three service groups that follow the life of a development, from first ground investigation through to the risk management plan that outlives construction.
- Site investigations and geotechnical assessments
- Evaluation of dolomite and potentially unstable ground
- Foundation recommendations
- Structural design and municipal or NHBRC compliance support
- Investigation of sinkholes, subsidence and cracked structures
- Engineering stabilisation and repair recommendations
- Ongoing risk management strategies
- Wet services audits
- Monitoring of water related factors associated with sinkhole formation
- Compliance and risk management support throughout the life of a development
