Modern suburban construction is a rather difficult task that requires high professionalism from the performers. Survey is one of the main tasks of successful construction and long-term operation of buildings. They relate to engineering geology and represent a whole range of operations that allow you to thoroughly study the construction site.
The main reasons for ordering surveys can be displayed in a small list:
drawing up an accurate description of the land plot in terms of engineering and geological research;
accurate calculation of the technical characteristics of the foundation of the future building;
building design in space;
adaptation of the standard project to the engineering and geological conditions of the site;
forecast of changes in the characteristics of the site under the influence of man-made and natural factors in the conditions of construction, house operation;
identification of factors during the construction of a house that can negatively affect the technogenic environment and social infrastructure;
formation of a project with a full description of possible technogenic processes and the creation of protective mechanisms;
In most developed countries, the developer does not have the right to start building a house without conducting research. The engineering survey is one of the permitting documents for construction. These rules take their roots in the depths of millennia. They were also used by the Romans and Egyptians.
All types of work, including geodetic work in Moscow, are carried out in accordance with the standards. Even the slightest violation of them in the future can lead to the rapid decommissioning of the building, its damage, as well as damage to the environment.
Initially, surveys are carried out at the stage of searching for a land plot. After the start of work on the building project, they proceed to the main research. In the process of developing technical documentation for the house, they are supplemented and adjusted. An approximate list of works includes:
field (sampling by drilling and others);
laboratory (analysis of the obtained samples);
office (drawing up an act).
As you can see, it is extremely important to complete this stage of construction in full in order to protect your house from possible problems with the foundation, soil and other factors.
