SEAGATE ENGINEERING AND BUILDSYSTEMS came from its humble
beginnings and origin as the former Northbuilders Engineering and
Construction created in 1989. With the challenges of times and transformation,
the company was officially established, registered, and emerged on the 21st
October 2002 with the acronym it originally derived from its collaborative network
of professionals conceived as South East Asia Group of Architects
Technologists and Engineers now known as (S E A G A T E), owned and operated by its founder Engineer Leo B. Campos a Licensed Civil Engineer - Structural Engineering
Consultant Specialist by profession, an environmental advocate and a licensed (LESP) Security Professional. He is a life member of the Philippine Institute
of Civil Engineers (PICE No. 3977), and certified as Specialist
in Construction Management and Engineering (CME Cert. No. 278 issued
29-May-2007) and in Structural Engineering (StE Cert. No. 112 issued
17-October-2008) and a Regular/ Life Member of the Association of Structural
Engineers of the Philippines (ASEP Regisrty No. 0053208-2005-00155 issued 12-Dec-2005), and holds regular membership with the Institution of
Specialist Structural Engineers of the Philippines (ISSEP IStructS No. 070) of
78 certified members of the elite but humble Institution of Specialist
Structural Engineers out of more than 95,000 registered Civil Engineers in the
Country as of 2022. Led by its founder the Company is focused in providing
high-quality service and customer satisfaction

SEISMIC
REFRACTION
Our experienced staff of engineers and geologists can perform Seismic Refraction Studies for difficult to reach and/or remote locations as a cost effective alternative to conventional drilling services. The seismic refraction method consists of measuring (at known points along the surface of the ground) the travel time of compression waves generated by an impulsive energy source. The energy source utilized consisted of a 12-pound sledgehammer, which was detected by 12 separate geophones, then amplified and recorded by a seismograph. Measurements of time and distance were recorded and plotted on a graph, from which the depth of various layers can be determined along with their individual velocities.
From the seismic wave velocities, our Engineers can extrapolate geotechnical design parameters such as dry density, angle of internal friction and soil cohesion. This method is especially useful in archaeologically and environmentally sensitive areas. Widely utilized by the Telecommunication Industry for monopole and lattice tower foundation design in elevated, mountainous areas; this method is also applicable to custom home and commercial structure foundation designs
