ZALIG completed geotechnical site investigation & report for TELUS Communication Towers with heights ranging from 30m to 70m.
Project Goal
The purpose of the site investigation was to address the following scope of work:
Design of typical screw pile, cast-in-place pile. Lateral resistance of guy anchors with ultimate and serviceability limit state data.
Soil Investigation involving soil resistivity, PH level, salt & moisture concentration, and temperature for cathodic protection design, plus Liquefaction potential.
Determine soil properties encountered during drilling and the likelihood of foundation design impacts.
Laboratory testing to permit the development of geotechnical design parameters.
Results
On-site drilling of over 5 boreholes to depths ranging from 14 m or auger refusal was performed along with laboratory materials testing which included:
