Job Description

Powertech's specialized lab is equipped with advanced equipment to evaluate filter performance in embankment dams across a wide range of soil types, from fine-grained materials to coarse particles.  Core Services Testing of Fill Materials for Embankment Dams  :  Internal erosion represents a significant risk to embankment dams and accounts for nearly half of all dam safety incidents.


Due to challenges with assessing internal erosion in-situ and the lack of availability of numerical models, non-standardized laboratory tests and empirical methods are primarily relied on.


Powertech has developed advanced test equipment to evaluate filter performance in embankment dams across a wide range of soil types, from fine-grained materials to coarse particles up to 125 mm.


Soil Thermal Resistivity Testing : A crucial part of designing cable systems and thermal storage facilities is estimating the thermal behavior of the soil.
