Once again, AGES is providing the cutting-edge technology in the most affordable and reliable manner for in-situ shear wave velocity (Vs) in a borehole.
Accurate in-situ P-wave and S-wave velocity profiles are essential in geotechnical foundation designs.
These parameters are used in both analyses of soil behavior under both static and dynamic loads where the elastic constants are input variables into the models defining the different states of deformations such as elastic, elasto-plastic, and failure.
Another important use of the estimated shear wave velocities in geotechnical design is in the liquefaction assessment of soils.
