Soil Salinity Studies

Saline soils can have a significant detrimental affect on buildings, causing chemical and physical damage to building materials such as bricks, concrete, and mortar. Identifying the salinity hazards and designing buildings appropriately is therefore critical to the long-term performance of your buildings.

Asset has carried out numerous salinity studies involving review of risk hazard maps, site walkover mapping, drilling boreholes and excavating test pits to characterise the ground conditions and obtain samples, interpretation of laboratory results, and preparing reports that provide recommendations for site managment and development as appropriate for the risk level.
