Soil and Thermal Resistivity Survey in San Manuel, Pangasinan

Client: Power China Corp.

Location: San Manuel, Pangasinan


The Challenge

In San Manuel, Pangasinan, the need to conduct a soil and thermal resistivity survey for solar foundation design has become increasingly critical. The area is characterized by very soft soils and a very high-water table, posing significant challenges for the project.

The Journey

Equipped with advanced soil and thermal resistivity technology, we navigated the challenging terrain of San Manuel. Our mission was clear: to gather accurate data that could inform the design of solar foundations in this difficult environment. Despite the challenges posed by the region's soft soils and high-water table, our determination remained unwavering.

Key Insights

  • Very Soft Soils: The soft soils in San Manuel presented a significant challenge, but our advanced technology allowed us to gather accurate data.

  • Data Scarcity: The lack of extensive previous studies meant we were exploring largely uncharted territory.

  • Survey Challenges: The high water table added another layer of complexity to our mission.

  • Difficult Terrain: The rugged terrain of San Manuel required careful navigation and added to the complexity of the survey.

  • Possible Flooding: The potential for flooding in the area posed additional risks and required thorough planning and mitigation strategies.

  • Innovative Solutions: One of the most valuable lessons from this project was the effectiveness of our advanced equipment in overcoming the challenges posed by the difficult soil conditions.
