Rock-stress and -deformation In-Situ Testing

Cost-optimised design thanks to reliable rock mechanical parameters.

For cost-optimised dimensioning and long-term stability of challenging underground structures, geotechnical engineers rely on accurate rock-mechanical parameters. By applying our field-proven technology, Polymetra guarantees not only short testing times for in-situ rock stresses. In our commitment to top quality stands above all a clever synthesis of expert knowledge and advanced analysis methods, which guarantees your desired result: PREDICTION RELIABILITY.
