Our project participation includes feasibility and site selection studies, development of plans and specifications, preliminary and comprehensive design investigations, construction consultations and monitoring, and post construction performance evaluations.

Some of what we can do for you is listed below:

Foundation Design:

Site selection studies for comparison of relative foundation and earthwork problems.
Development of site preparation criteria such as stripping, grading, dewatering and erosion control.

Development of foundation design and installation criteria for foundations including spread footings, mats, cassions, piles, etc.

Estimation of the magnitude and rate of settlement of foundations.

Development of design criteria for slope retention structures, including retaining walls, tied back shoring systems and crib walls.

Construction consultations and monitoring of foundation installation and performance

Dam Design and Safety Evaluations:

Embankment Design Studies

Appurtenant structures

Embankment inspections

Embankment performance evaluation

Earthwork Design and Analysis:

Investigation and evaluation of soil and rock sources for earthwork and embankment construction.

Estimation of magnitude and settlement of earthworks.

Monitoring of earthwork activities, including excavation of unsuitable soils, placement and compaction of fills and post construction performance.
