Consulting Services for NDT
and Geophysical Investigations

Olson Engineering serves a wide variety of industries and clientele who need high-quality Nondestructive Testing (NDT) and Geophysical imaging solutions for the purpose of minimizing risks and managing concerns in relation to structures, pavements, foundations, and subsurface features. Our unique combination of utilizing NDT technologies for man-made structures and geophysical imaging of earth materials provides our clients with a single-source contractor capable of meeting their program objectives.

Nondestructive Testing & Evaluation

Olson’s NDT services can test, evaluate, image, measure, and scan almost any type of structural or infrastructure element for the purpose of constructing, maintaining, or retrofitting, and offer options for repair when concerns are identified, allowing the risk to be mitigated. Materials that can be evaluated by nondestructive methods include concrete, masonry, wood, asphalt, stone, and pipes.

This approach ensures a complete diagnosis of both visible and hidden structural material conditions, allows all operations to be conducted with minimal or no damage, and results in lower costs and reduced risk for the public, owners, contractors, and engineers.

Geophysical Services

Olson’s geophysical imaging services are primarily applied to engineering, environmental and ground water problems helping to determine subsurface conditions that are problematic, anomalous or unpredictable, permitting our clients to better design and minimize risk for construction, site investigation, and drilling.

This non-invasive approach enables imaging of large volumes of earth materials beneath a site, allows for one-, two-, and three-dimensional (1D, 2D, or 3D) surveys, and utilizes existing geotechnical data to calibrate results between, below, and beyond drill holes.
