Possible applications

The geotechnical equipment of our degree programme offers students the opportunity to apply the theoretical knowledge they have acquired in the subjects of geology, hydrogeology and soil science in field internships.

Soil approach, soil sampling

  • Field vane probe
  • Hand drilling equipment
  • Light pile driver
  • Pile-driving core drilling equipment
  • Small drilling rig

Surveying, mapping

  • Measuring wheels
  • Levelling devices
  • GPS

Sampling, hydraulics

  • Soil gas sampling system GPMS 101
  • Groundwater sampling set MP1
  • Submersible motor pump
  • Sampler
  • Mobile analysis for on-site parameters (pH value, conductivity, oxygen)
  • Floodlights
  • Flowmeters

Geotechnics

  • SP 100" precision frame scrubber

Geotechnical test field

  • Carrying out plate load tests to monitor construction measures in earthworks, foundation engineering and road construction
  • Carrying out pile-driving core drillings and dynamic probing for subsoil investigations
  • Determination of soil mechanical parameters in field tests, e.g. density determination using the balloon (densitometer) method
