Services
Geotechnical Engineering
We provide comprehensive geotechnical engineering services including subsurface exploration, foundation evaluation, and slope stability analysis. Our expertise ensures structural integrity for infrastructure projects through precise soil testing and engineering geology assessments. With 17+ years of specialized experience, we deliver reliable solutions for airport runways, industrial facilities, and commercial developments.
Environmental Consulting
Our environmental consulting services identify potential contamination liabilities through hazardous material assessments and underground storage tank evaluations. We conduct environmental site assessments and hazardous waste management planning to support property transactions and regulatory compliance. Our experience covers diverse projects from Georgia revitalization initiatives to Louisiana industrial sites.
Construction Services
We offer construction quality control services including materials testing and specification compliance for structural steel, masonry, and pavement systems. Our team provides full-time engineering observation and failure analysis for commercial and infrastructure projects. Expertise spans FAA standards for airport construction and ASTM compliance for industrial facilities.
Sinkhole Remediation
Specialized sinkhole exploration and remediation services address subsurface voids through geotechnical investigation and earth fill design. We implement mechanically-stabilized earth solutions to prevent ground movement, ensuring long-term stability for infrastructure projects. Our techniques combine field permeability testing with engineered fill materials for effective ground stabilization.
Foundation Evaluation
We conduct shallow and deep foundation evaluations using advanced geotechnical testing methods. Our analysis determines optimal foundation systems for varying soil conditions, supporting structures from residential buildings to heavy industrial facilities. Services include load capacity assessments and recommendations for foundation repair or reinforcement.
