Additionally, by unloading and reloading the soil, it can assess the level of compaction achieved, similarly […]

As part of the Kaikoura earthquake response, North Canterbury Transport Infrastructure Recovery (NCTIR) has engaged the services of Geocivil to help gather data on one of their trial to determine if they could use slip material as roading aggregate. As part of this trial, Geocivil has tested the slip material for particle size distribution and […]
