Capabilities | Geotechnical Site Characterization Services

ARA cone penetration technology (CPT) truck used for conducting field analysis.
Our Site Characterization Services range from basic soil property determination to in-depth exploration to identify and evaluate a potentially hazardous waste site. Our fleet of 30-ton cone penetration technology (CPT) trucks can run any level of site characterization.
Trucks are specifically equipped to characterize environmental sites using ARA's specially developed and patented sensors and probes.
ARA has extensive expertise in environmental monitoring and employs specifically designed sensors, installs monitoring wells, develops remote sensing systems and analyzes data. ARA also has a fully equipped analytical laboratory for developing and testing environmental solutions.
