TUNNEL DESIGN

The company is specialized in tunnel and underground excavation design over the last 30 years. A specialist simulation software is used for excavation and support phases (finite elements analysis) while the tunnel construction is monitored on site by experienced scientific staff.

BRIDGE DESIGN

The design of bridges has recently become a very important part of the construction industry. The company is highly experienced in planning and designing road and railway bridges (conventional bridges, overpasses etc.) using advanced software adjusted for the requirements of each project.

GEOTECHNICAL DESIGN

Work is regularly undertaken in relation to:

  • Special foundations (bored piles, micropiles, diaphragm walls)
  • Retaining structures (walls, anchors, reinforced earth)
  • Ground improvement (remediation, pre-loading, dynamic compaction, grout injections)
  • Slope stability

GEOLOGICAL DESIGN

The services offered by Malios Associates Inc. include, among others, geological studies (geological, structural, hydrogeological, geophysical), engineering geological mapping, engineering geological studies (data analysis and reporting, recommendations on difficulties encountered during construction).

GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION FIELD

Our geotechnical engineers are available to organize, supervise and carry out investigations including boreholes, trial pits, field tests throughout the country. The company is highly experienced in carrying out deep sampling boreholes using water drilling rigs and Wire-Line sampling instrumentation, as well as carrying out horizontal boreholes in tunnels. Boreholes that have been carried out during the excavation of Kallidromo tunnel were as deep as 515m using Wire-Line sampling instrumentation 95’’ in diameter. During drilling, various types of in situ tests are carried out (Maag and Lugeon tests, groundwater level monitoring etc.). The results are documented on daily borehole logs by our highly experienced scientific teams.

GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION LABORATORY

Malios Associates Inc. covers a full range of lab tests in soil and rock mechanics determining the physical and mechanical properties of soil and rock samples. All results are analysed to the highest standards and geotechnical evaluation reports are prepared.

GEOTECHNICAL MONITORING

Monitoring during tunneling as well as after the completion of underground works is part of a thorough geotechnical design. The company provides special services regarding the collection of geological, geotechnical and geometric data in order to continuously monitor the behaviour of the construction.
