• Conduct site investigations by collecting soil/rock samples, performing borings, and analyzing subsurface conditions to assess stability and hazards.
• Perform laboratory testing, data analysis, and modeling using software like Plaxis or GeoStudio to design foundations, retaining structures, and earthworks.
• Evaluate geological risks such as landslides, settlement, or earthquakes; develop mitigation strategies and recommend site suitability.
• Prepare technical reports, specifications, and cost estimates; collaborate with civil/structural engineers on project designs and construction monitoring.
• Supervise field investigations, ensure compliance with environmental regulations, and monitor earthworks during construction phases.
• Use geological maps, seismic data, and 2D/3D models to predict ground behavior and advise on materials or procedures.
