Static Load and Pull-Out Testing for Ground–Structure Interaction

Our teams are currently deployed across projects in France, UK, Spain & Italy, carrying out static load test studies to optimize foundation design for energy projects.

In photovoltaic structural engineering, what puts @OrbisTerrarum one step ahead is the methodological, statistical, and construction-led approach behind the test’s campaigns.

A joined-up workflow consisted of geotechnics + testing + interpretation + execution criteria bring our reports beyond:

  • Design that accounts for geological heterogeneity. No “average ground” has never existed.
  • Eurocode-aligned criteria supported by our statistical interpretation methodology. Construction zoning to align design with execution.
  • Full-scale field validation rather than purely theoretical sizing. 
  • Foundation optimization based on real response (refusal reduction, diameter and embedment tuning).

The result is not just a set of tests. It is structured information to design with lower uncertainty and higher efficiency.
