Importance of Well-Designed Soil Investigations

And i’ve been diving deeper into the impact of thorough site investigations on project success. Recently, while working on a foundation design for a commercial building, I noticed that the data from one geotechnical report drastically changed our approach to the excavation process. Has anyone else experienced a significant shift in project outcomes due to more comprehensive soil sampling or testing methods?
