AECOM provides a full range of geotechnical services to serve clients in both public and private sectors across Asia. The geotechnical team in Hong Kong has over 400 professional and technical staff and is the largest geotechnical consulting practice in the region.
We provide one-stop access to services ranging from project management, feasibility studies, detailed design, contract administration and construction supervision for geotechnical works. In addition, we are able to draw experienced professionals and specialists from our operations worldwide to provide a superior service to our clients.
The geotechnical team has provided services to many major developments and has extensive experience in the design of foundations and deep excavations in different ground conditions. Our expert staff also specializes in numerical modeling including 3-D models for foundation analysis and design for high-rise/skyscrapers.
We have established expertise in slope upgrading works, natural terrain hazard study and the design of related mitigation works for both Government and private developments. We have also undertaken many underground excavation and tunneling projects throughout Asia, developing projects from inception, through feasibility and detailed design to construction supervision. Along the way, we developed a particular expertise in the characterization of rock masses and the evaluation of groundwater inflows.
The geotechnical group is also able to apply geographic information system (GIS) technology through the expertise of our in-house GIS specialists. With this technology, 3-dimensional geological ground models were developed for many major projects to facilitate geological interpretation, site planning, determination of the best tunnel alignment and foundation/basement designs.
Our key services include: Deep excavations; foundations; geographic information system (GIS); geological study and interpretation; geotechnical analysis and design; ground improvement; groundwater modeling and management; immersed tube tunnel; instrumentation and monitoring; landslide investigation; natural terrain hazard study and mitigation measures; numerical modeling; reclamation; site formation and slope design; site investigation; tunneling and pipelines.
