Frequently asked questions
I carry out geological surveys and core drilling for construction: ATECO code 43.13.00?
Yes. Test drilling, boring and core sampling for construction, geophysical, geological or similar purposes is exactly 43.13.00. If instead you drill a water well or a geothermal borehole as part of a water infrastructure project, that falls under 42.21.00.
What is the difference between 43.13.00 and construction site earthworks?
The type of work differs. 43.13.00 is drilling and coring for sub-surface investigation; excavation, grading and earthmoving are 43.12.09. Drilling goes deep into the ground; earthworks move material at the surface.
Geophysical borings to study the ground before construction: do they fall here?
Yes, geophysical and geological test borings are covered by 43.13.00. This is the code for investigative drilling for construction purposes. Preparing a site for an archaeological excavation, on the other hand, has its own dedicated code, 43.12.01.
