Land Services

We offer a range of cone penetration testing and other in situ testing techniques. Our skilled site operatives perform the testing using our top-of-the-range CPT units and equipment.

The cone penetration test (CPT) involves pushing a cone penetrometer – the cone – on the end of a series of rods, vertically into the ground at a constant rate of 20mm per second, to depths of up to 100m.

How does CPT work?

We provide piezocone testing, as well as a number of specialist cones that can be run concurrently to test different geological environments and evaluate a range of soil parameters. The CPT platform is also useful for sampling and geotechnical installations.

Book a bespoke CPT webinar

A great way for you and your team to find out more about CPT and its benefits is a Lankelma webinar.

Tailored to specific needs and experience of CPT, the webinars cover anything from first principles, to specific applications such as railways, contaminated land and nearshore and marine projects.

To book, and discuss requirements, please contact us at info@lankelma.com.
