Geology & Geotechnics

a comprehensive and controlled approach

ROC Aventure now incorporates two essential skills:

  • Geology (field analysis)

  • Geotechnical engineering (design and calculations)

Geology (field reading)

  • Analysis of rock formations
    Identification of weak lines
  • Understanding natural structures
    Optimization of routes in mountainous environments
  • Directly derived from alpine experience and route opening.

Geotechnical engineering (sizing & calculations)

  • Stability studies
    Anchorage design
  • Tensile testing and inspections
  • Technical notes and engineering documentation
  • Methodologies compliant with standards (G1 to G4 missions)

Performed by engineers integrated into the team.
