FSG provides geotechnical and foundation engineering services for port, marine and coastal infrastructure projects across Australia and internationally.
Our experience spans ports, wharves, jetties, berths, marine terminals, reclamation works and associated transport and utility infrastructure, supporting projects from planning and investigation through to design, construction and asset upgrades.
Working in coastal, nearshore and overwater environments requires a detailed understanding of marine ground conditions and construction challenges. FSG delivers geotechnical investigations, ground characterisation, foundation design, earthworks, reclamation works, hardstands and heavy-duty pavement solutions tailored to the demands of marine infrastructure.
FSG is widely recognised for our expertise in driven steel piling for jetties, wharves and retention structures, providing pile driveability assessments, hammer selection studies, dynamic pile testing, CAPWAP® analysis and foundation verification services. We are a key delivery partner for many specialist marine subcontractors and a valued advisor to Tier 1 contractors who choose to self-perform their marine piling works.
Our capabilities include both design, constructability and procurement advice, helping clients manage risk, realise opportunities, optimise constructability and deliver durable, cost-effective infrastructure in challenging coastal environments.
Marine piling services.
FSG is a recognised leader in the design, analysis, testing and verification of driven pile foundations for port and marine infrastructure. Our expertise spans steel tubular piles, sheet pile walls, combi-wall systems and other driven foundation solutions used in wharves, jetties, berths, mooring structures and waterfront developments. We support projects from concept and tender design through to construction verification and final sign-off, ensuring foundation solutions are properly procured, practical, buildable and aligned with project performance requirements.
Our services include pile driveability analysis, hammer selection studies, installation risk assessments and construction methodology reviews, drawing on extensive testing data and hands-on construction experience. By understanding the interaction between ground conditions, pile characteristics and installation equipment, we help clients optimise foundation designs, improve constructability and minimise installation risk. We also develop technical specifications, acceptance criteria and quality assurance frameworks that provide clear, practical controls during construction.
During delivery, FSG provides independent testing, monitoring, verification and certification services to confirm pile performance and compliance with project requirements. As Australia's largest independent pile testing provider, we offer dynamic pile testing, CAPWAP® analysis, pile integrity testing and installation monitoring for steel, concrete and timber piling systems.
This unique combination of geotechnical engineering, construction expertise and testing capability enables FSG to provide end-to-end support for marine piling projects, delivering confidence from design development through to final foundation certification.
