The Competitor Dart sampling rig and associated tools together form an integrated system,
offering an innovative solution to undisturbed soil core sampling,
groundwater sampling and monitoring, contaminant logging, window sampling,
standard penetration testing and dynamic probing.
One of the first Competitor sampling rigs was built
for the UK Environmental Agency in 1996. In the short time since then,
Competitor rigs and tooling systems have become widely used in site
investigations and remediation projects throughout the UK and several
countries overseas.
The design and versatility of the system has been continuously improving, culminating in a New Generation of soil rigs, for which Archway Engineering gained
recognition in 1998 as winners of a SMART Award for Design and Innovation
from the UK Department of Trade and Industry. The Competitor rig has been
continually improved culminating in the development of the Dart rig.
You will find the Competitor System used in geotechnical investigations, brownfield
site
assessments, property audits, subsidence investigations, hydrogeological
studies, and many diverse applications in which access is limited or where
the site must be left undisturbed.
The Competitor Dart System has been developed with the operator in mind, and delivers clear
benefits in terms of ease-of-use, portability, and greater
cost-effectiveness when compared to many other ground investigation
techniques.
