Role
Description
hazard mapping
geotechnical design
construction monitoring
data analysis
hydrologic assessment
water management
Geohazard, geotechnical and hydrotechnical assessments for various pipeline, transportation, community, and power projects. Work could include preliminary hazard inventories (i.e. terrain mapping), site investigation through to detailed design and construction of mitigation works.
Geotechnical investigation, assessment, design, and construction monitoring at mine sites for waste management facilities (e.g. tailings), open pits, underground excavations, access roads, and building foundations. Work could include foundation inspection, oversight of material placement and design conformance as well as interpretation of field or instrumentation data, seepage, slope stability and deposition analysis, reporting and data reduction, and preparing construction drawings and specifications.
Surface and groundwater assessments for environmental baseline studies, water supply projects, design of remediation works (built and natural environments), design and construction of water management infrastructure, balance studies, hydrologic assessments, and geohazard risk assessments.
