SONAR, Headquarters and Workshop Facilities
SONAR was established in 1977 by Muzaffer

evik, with specialization in "drilling" and
"engineering geology", which was soon
followed by the establishment of "grouting"
and "water well drilling" departments. In
1993, "geotechnical engineering" branch of
civil engineering discipline became the main
field of activity. With 37 years of experience,
SONAR has become one of the national
leaders in the field of geotechnical
engineering.
Within each of our main activities, SONAR

offers a range of services and capabilities,
ensuring the optimum technical solutions to all
kinds of geotechnical problems. We recognize
that meeting the needs of our clients involves
not only technically effective solution but it
also means providing permanent, economic
and safe solution in the feasible shortest time.
SONAR is currently engaged in contracting

activities with a geographical emphasis
Middle East and Eurasian/CIS countries, in
addition to activities in Turkey.
