Prior to the placement of a single brick, engineers and scientists analyze the soils important characteristics such as its density, the depth of its bedrock, its chemistry, and more important factors. Once a survey has been established, plans can be put in place for remediating geologic complications before construction begins.

For rock-core borings, a truck-mounted drill rig with standard diamond core bits and series X or M double-tube core barrels are used to obtain 2-1/8 inch diameter rock core borings. Strong soil is soil that does not expand or contract excessively in regards to moisture, and it has a good density, which means it won't greatly compact or settle after construction is complete.
