Evaluation and determination of safety conditions, comfort and noise of asphalt coverings
The quality of asphalt paving has improved significantly in Brazil, thanks to new techniques and materials used in laying down the layers of urban roads, freeways and airports. Moreover, the automotive and aircraft industries produce ever more stable, fast, silent and safe models, while the tire industry develops models that Read more…

Analysis of risks and causes of collapse and subsidence
We are sometimes taken unawares by phenomena such as soil subsidence and collapse at sites with or without civil works. IPT has ample experience in investigating the causes of such incidents, which result from carstic collapse (dissolution of chalk rock by flowing water), lowering of the water table or the Read more…

Technical inspections and evaluation of pathologies in civil and mining works
Innumerable adverse phenomena or pathologies may occur during the execution of civil engineering works (underground works, foundations, bridges and overpasses, dams, roads, buildings, etc.), mining works and in finished structures or structures in use. Many apparently serious problems may be simply esthetic, while apparently inoffensive features can point to serious Read more…

Characterization of rock and soil massifs for civil engineering projects
Knowledge about the rock and soil massifs where civil engineering works will be implemented is essential for the preparation of technically and economically coherent projects. Identifying the spatial distribution of materials in the subsoil, characterizing their properties and determining the state of stresses allows for the design of safer civil Read more…

Induced seismicity and monitoring of vibrations in civil engineering works
Filling water reservoirs formed by dams can induce earthquakes and possible severe damage to these structures and neighboring buildings. To meet the requirements of IBAMA and State Environmental Agencies, IPT carries out seismic monitoring of these enterprises, estimating hypocentral parameters of seismic phenomena. Analysis of the spatial and temporal distribution Read more…
