Geotechnical surveys in UXO suspect areas

T&A performs geotechnical research, depth detection, the determination of the length of sheet piling or the location of anchor rods using a magnetometer cone. A CPT (Cone Penetration Test) rod with a built-in magnetometer is pressed into the ground in a controlled manner using a CPT truck or CPT platform. Probings can be set up to many tens of meters and can be used on land as well as in water.

Magnetometer CPT is a magnetic technique that can detect deep ferrous metal objects. Applications include:

• Detection of deep, large metal objects (UXO).
• Determining the depth of a sheet pile wall.
• Locating reinforced piles.
• Locating anchor rods.
  
• Geotechnical probes in suspected area.
