Seismic Surveys
This kind of surveys represents the most reliable method for the distinction of underground stratigraphy layers with different levels of compactness adn morphology, using the determination of speed propagation of artificially generated seismic waves
Reflection Seismic
Seismic surveys are used in all that works that needs to return morphology of underground through the generation of elastic surface waves

- DAQlink n°serie 1121 SEISMIC SORURCE COMPANY; DAQlink n°serie 1131 SEISMIC SOURCE COMPANY
Sensors for seismic reflection:
- vertical and horizontal geophones with variable fre between 4 and 14 Hz
- Seismic wires 'till 150m;
Seismic waves sources:
- Vertical hammer ( 150Kg ) anchored on pick-up for P waves generation

Refraction Seismic
Refraction seismic surveys are used in all that kind of works wich needs results about
underground stratigraphy in terms of compactness and seismic layers morphology, through the generation of elastic surface waves

Down-hole and Cross-hole
DOWN-HOLE and CROSS-HOLE surveys are particulary useful for characterization of
underground in terms of Compression and Shear waves, then in terms of Elastic and Shear dynamic module
Digital Seismographs:
- OYO McSeis SX; OYO McSeis 160; ECHO 2002 AMBROGEO
Down-hole sensors:
- n.2 groups of geophones FOUR Ltd - 14 hz
- n.2 groups of geophones AMBROGEO 3D - 10 hz
Software for data elaboration:
REFLEXW v.4.0
