What We Do

​As geotechnical engineers, we investigate subsurface conditions at a site in order to predict their behavior under the specific conditions imposed on them (e.g. foundations impose loads and stresses on soil). We perform geotechnical analyses using this information and provide our clients with answers and recommendations backed by our experience and engineering judgement.
