About Geotechnical Engineers
Geotechnical engineers investigate ground conditions and design foundations for developments on challenging or unknown ground. They carry out ground investigations including boreholes, trial pits, and laboratory testing, producing geotechnical assessment reports that inform foundation design and earthworks. Their work covers bearing capacity assessment, slope stability analysis, settlement prediction, groundwater level monitoring, and geotechnical risk assessment. While ground investigation is primarily a Building Regulations matter, councils often condition site investigation reports as part of planning approvals — particularly on steeply sloping sites, former quarries, landfill sites, or areas with mining history. A geotechnical engineer's input at the planning stage can also inform site layout and building positioning.
