InTEC provides consistent support to project owners, guiding them from the initial planning stages through project completion. Our core service areas, including environmental, geotechnical, and construction materials testing, are applied as necessary throughout various project phases. Additionally, InTEC of San Antonio offers assistance in addressing post-construction needs.
Environmental site assessments, often requireded by financial institutions, uncover potential environmental issues.
The preliminary soil survey provides insight into the anticipated soil types at the project site.
The soil borings can uncover potential soil related challenges within the project site.
InTEC leverages extensive experience in local soils and geology to offer valuable insights for planning purposes.
The final soils investigation, which forms the basis for foundation design, offers soil design parameters to the structural engineer. These recommendations generally include various foundation types, such as conventional grid type slab, post-tension slab, spread footings, and pier and beam foundations.
We generate pavement design recommendations considering existing soil conditions, expected performance, our extensive experience, and compliance with various agencies. These pavement options, typically consisting of both asphalt and concrete pavement options, are presented to the owner.
At this stage, site work recommendations become a focal point of discussion due to their significant impact on the construction duration and budget. InTEC draws upon its extensive experience, considering options like moisture conditioning of on-site soils, water injection, chemical injection, and removal and replacement, to provide expert guidance.
During the construction stage, services encompass earthwork operations, pre-pour inspections, concrete testing, post-tension inspections, and framing inspections. Special inspections are a mandatory requirement for numerous projects, in accordance with the International Building Code. InTEC employs experienced and certified technicians to carry out the necessary inspections, ensuring compliance with these requirements.
InTEC conducts compaction testing, concrete testing, steel inspections, wood framing inspections, and performs pier drilling observation.
