Geotechnical consulting is an important first step to any civil engineering project. We offer a variety of geotechnical consulting services to meet the unique needs of each of our clients and their diverse projects.
Foundation RecommendationsWe provide geotechnical recommendations for design and construction of foundations for buildings, bridges, towers, and all other structures requiring foundations.
Our goal is to provide the most economical alternatives that will meet our client’s expectations for the lifetime performance of the structure. |
We provide temporary and permanent earthwork recommendations to include sheeting and shoring designs. Our geotechnical expertise coupled with our structural design capabilities enables us to interpret subsurface data from our own explorations. This allows for one-stop consulting for our clients.

Slope Stability & Landslide EvaluationsWe assess landslide events, try to determine the cause of the slide, and work with our clients to develop a solution that will restore the integrity of the slope. We also analyze existing slopes involved with engineering projects and design reinforcement options when necessary. Slope inclinometers can be installed to detect and monitor slope movements.
