Objective evaluation without ambiguity is possible! Introducing a method for assessing the risk level of retaining walls using surface wave exploration.
Our company uses a risk assessment method based on surface wave exploration to evaluate the integrity of stone masonry retaining walls. The integrity assessment of stone masonry retaining walls has traditionally been conducted based on "experience and intuition" without much foundation. Measurements using surface wave exploration allow for an objective evaluation without ambiguity. 【Features】 ■ Objective evaluation without ambiguity ■ Ability to measure the stiffness (Vs) of the wall body and the underlying ground ■ Risk levels determined as high, medium, or low based on S-wave velocity *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Company information
Our main product is consulting engineers. Their characteristic is that, based on the fundamentals of natural sciences (geology and geotechnical engineering), engineers who are licensed professionals directly collect information through field surveys, allowing for a high-level understanding of the natural conditions that "no two locations have the same ground or topographical conditions." This enables the appropriate extraction of important items that need to be evaluated on-site, leading to rational problem-solving. Unlike standardized ground modeling and analysis methods based on guidelines and manuals, we uncover core issues and phenomena not covered by standard methods, allowing us to propose highly effective countermeasures while also enabling the development of new analysis methods and construction techniques. For example, three-dimensional stability analysis considering peripheral strength (Ota-Hayashi method), seismic analysis of fill embankments in valleys (Ota-Enokida model), and slope stability countermeasures effectively utilizing the strength within soil masses (disruption method) have emerged from this background. Additionally, we make maximum use of IT, streamlining and reducing costs by procuring useful software from overseas or developing it in-house.
