What is the need of Soil Testing before Construction?
The most average time to build a multi family house which varies the number of units in a building. In 2014 building the twenty or more units took near about 15 months to complete from the time of obtaining permits. And properties with 10 to 19 units physically finished in 13.6 months whereas 5 to 9Read more

In 2014 building the twenty or more units took near about 15 months to complete from the time of obtaining permits. And properties with 10 to 19 units physically finished in 13.6 months whereas 5 to 9 unit building came in at 11.5 months.
The average time from permits to start does not follow the same pattern with respect to property size. Properties with 10 to 19 units had the longest average waiting period.

Soil testing is first done to test the bearing capacity of the soil. The physical and chemical configuration of the soil is checked during this process. The soil must be able to withstand the load of the structure. The nature of soil decides the bearing limit as well as guarantees to decide the structural adjustment. The nature of soil relies on different factors, for example, climate, environmental change and for as far back as years the land was sent for what reason and what was there before.
The length and depth of the footing are decided during the foundation relying on the nature of the soil. The water level of the soil can only be resolved from soil testing. In light of the soil testing results, the nature of the material can be chosen. For instance, because of dampness the zone is lead to corrosion, at that point it is essential to pick just corrosion safe TMT Bars for the construction.
A soil test is a very significant step in construction before it starts. If the soil testing isn’t done, at that point the structure will be presented to various failures and the final result could be lethal.
Types of Soil Testing for Construction
Gravity Test
Moisture Test
Atterberg Limits Test
Dry Density Test
Proctor’s Compaction Test
