Abstract
This study presents the results of engineering and geological surveys conducted at an industrial facility in the northern region of Kazakhstan. The hydrogeological conditions of the site were analyzed, and field investigations were carried out to determine the physical and mechanical properties of the soil. The surveys were conducted in accordance with the requirements of current regulatory documents in the Republic of Kazakhstan. Engineering-geological investigations were performed to provide a comprehensive assessment of the site conditions, taking into account the characteristics of the planned facilities. The ranges of deformation modulus for various soil types were evaluated using plate load tests. Particular attention was given to the advantages of this approach, including the preservation of structural integrity, minimizing the impact on existing structures, and the use of strong and durable materials. Examples of successful application in industrial facilities are presented to demonstrate the practical significance of the methods. The importance of advanced engineering solutions for reducing soil deformation is emphasized. The study focuses on the analysis of soil layers and groundwater levels. Field results indicate a significant reduction in soil deformation, which enhances both the stability and the service life of industrial buildings and structures. Overall, engineering and geotechnical testing represent a promising component of modern industrial design, requiring an interdisciplinary approach that considers engineering, geological, and economic factors.
