Geotechnical assessment definition

Geotechnical assessment means a study or studies prepared by a qualified geotechnical professional licenced in the Province of British Columbia which: interprets the physical conditions of surface or subsurface features in a study area with respect to stability, potential seismic disturbance, interrelated chemical activity, and size and volume analysis; specifically addresses the possible effects of physical alterations or deformations of the land related to proposed building or other projects; and may establish standards for the siting and construction of proposed buildings or the nature and location of proposed uses.
Geotechnical assessment means an assessment prepared by a qualified professional for geological hazards detailing the surface and subsurface conditions of a site and delineating the areas of a property subject to geologic hazards.
Geotechnical assessment means an assessment prepared by a qualified professional, which that evaluates the site conditions and the effects of a proposal, identifies mitigating measures to ensure that the risks associated with geologic hazards will be substantially reduced, and provides a professional evaluation of the need for additional studies. See CCC 19.15.150 for requirements of geotechnical assessments.
