Project Overview
Scope, conditions & requirements
Project Scope
Surface geological terrain mapping along a 40km right-of-way for a proposed state road at Mat Daling, Pahang Darul Makmur.
Site Conditions
The site is located in a hilly area with undulating terrain near Sungai Tembeling.
Investigation Requirements
Mapping was needed to satisfy requirements set by government authorities including JMG, JKR, DOE and Plan Malaysia ahead of road development.
Our Approach
How the incident was assessed
Desk Study
Review of existing data ahead of fieldwork across the 40km alignment, carried out in August 2022.
Field Assessment
On-ground survey across the hilly, undulating terrain near Sungai Tembeling.
Feature Mapping
Terrain activity, instability, slope gradient and geohazards mapped and studied along the full study area.
Key Findings
What the mapping showed
Finding 1
Terrain activity and instability were mapped across multiple sections of the 40km study area.
Finding 2
Slope gradient and geohazard features were identified and documented along the alignment corridor.
Project Outcomes
How the findings are used
The mapping satisfied requirements set by JMG, JKR, DOE and Plan Malaysia, giving Euro Saga Sdn Bhd the geological terrain data needed to support the proposed state road's development ahead of construction.
