Full-Scale Geophysical Services for Geology, Hydrogeology, Environmental Geology and Civil Engineering Physics





<b>1. Introduction</b>


G IMPULS Praha spol. sr.o.
offers full-scale surface geophysical investigation. On the basis of the evaluation of physical properties of the medium we provide spatial image, even without boreholes and test pits, of the structure of the area of interest. Drillwork, if necessary, thanks to the geophysics can be situated with maximum economy. We have long-year experience particularly in the following fields:    



ENGINEERING GEOLOGY

determination of physical parameters (Young modulus of elasticity, Poisson number, porosity)

localization of underground utilities for earthwork and pipe-jacking projects

classification  of rocks according to workability and excavatibility of soils

searching for ammunition, pyrotechnical supervision

evaluation of radon risk

investigation of land-slide areas


CIVIL ENGINEERING

quality control of roadways, railways and their structure layers
stray currents measurement, environmental corrosion risk assessment

non-destructive assesment of the condition of concrete structures

cut-off walls and insulation functionality assessment

grouting quality assessment

bedrock depth determination

detection of cavities and points of subsidence


HYDROGEOLOGY

searching for drinking water sources, localization of places suitable for well-drilling

determination of groundwater flow direction


ECONOMY GEOLOGY

mapping of prospects for mineral resources and assessment of their physical properties

assessment of overburden on investigated deposits

qualified assessment of radioactivity of exploited minerals

mapping of tectonic structure of investigated area


ENVIRONMENTAL GEOLOGY

pre-project planning of future waste storage sites

assessment of tightness of existing waste storage sites

mapping the extent and volume of old covered waste storage sites

determination and monitoring of the extent of hydrocarbons on groundwater level

detection of abandoned underground workings and assessment of their technical condition

indication of places suitable for monitoring wells

indication of mercury contamination of soils


ARCHAEOLOGY

Mapping of hidden archaelogical artifacts

Original masonry detection

Brickworked areas detection (chimneys, wall niches, corridors)
