Mission: |
|||
| The functions of this unit are principally directed toward subsurface explorations for transportation facilities and geotechnical recommendations for design and construction of foundations for these facilities. Analyses are usually done in support of design and construction functions, but may extend to the planning and maintenance areas. Subunits include the Geology Unit, the Geotechnical Unit, and the Soils Laboratory. Please Note: Our laboratory does not test soils for home gardening or agricultural purposes. Instead, please go to the UVM soils testing site: http://www.uvm.edu/pss/ag_testing/?Page=soils.html | |||
