WML’s geotechnical team works alongside Civil, Structural, Pavement, and Subdivision specialists to deliver coordinated engineering services, ensuring efficient, accurate, and reliable outcomes from site investigation to design, construction support, and verification.


We handle projects of any scale or complexity, from inner-city Perth to remote regional locations.

Related Projects:

Each project demonstrates WML’s ability to provide precise, reliable, and innovative geotechnical solutions for a wide range of clients and industries.

NIFTY MINE COPPER CONCENTRATE HEAP LEACHING FACILITY

WML’s role in this project was to undertake a Geotechnical Investigation for the relocation of the existing processing plant and 1,000,000m2 heap leach area. The investigation involved the drilling of 20 boreholes and excavation of 75 test pits across the site in mainly greenfield areas.

SAND PITS ROAD, GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION AND SSE

A 42 hectare land development project is currently underway on Sand Pits Road in West Dardanup that will produce 18 large residential lots.

WML undertook a geotechnical investigation, which included borehole drilling using a solid augur drill rig and installation of groundwater monitoring wells.

MRWA BRIDGE PROJECTS

WML has assisted AECOM with numerous Main Roads WA bridge projects over the duration of 2022. The bridges were spread over the southwest and great southern region of the Western Australia.

Geotechnical Site Investigations

WML delivers targeted geotechnical investigations that define subsurface conditions and reduce uncertainty for design and construction. Each program is tailored to site conditions to ensure data collected is relevant, reliable, and fit for purpose.

Subdivisions by WML

Analysis, Modelling, and Design

Through analytical assessment and numerical modelling, WML converts ground data into practical engineering outcomes. This supports informed design decisions that reflect real site behaviour rather than theoretical conditions alone.

Subdivisions by WML

Open Pit and Underground Design Services

WML supports open pit and underground projects with geotechnical design solutions grounded in field data and engineering judgement. The approach is scalable, allowing the level of analysis to match project risk and stage of development.
