| Geotechnical
engineering requires the ability to assess accurately the mechanical
properties of soil or rock matrix and to evaluate the response
of the material when subjected to various loading and geotechnical
construction practices along with the high level of confidence
in the engineering abilities, field subsurface and laboratory
data are essential to safe and sound practices without
excess and unnecessary expenditures. Through our experienced
engineering staff, our hundreds of successfully completed projects,
our test drilling support services and our complete laboratory
capabilities in-house, we offer to our clients comprehensive
geotechnical engineering consultation and design services for
successful completion of almost any size and complexity project. |

Our projects
spanning four decades include multi-span bridges, high-rise
buildings, power plants, hydroelectric facilities, dams, treatment
facilities, underground infrastructure, industrial developments,
retail centers, electric substations, and the full range of commercial,
industrial, institutional, governmental and residential development.
Inclusive in our capabilities are deep and shallow foundation systems,
subgrade improvement, retention systems evaluation and design, landfill
evaluation and a wide array of specialized geotechnical services.

engineering and testing capabilities are critical to geotechnical
projects. Through our field engineering staff and our affiliate MATECO
Drilling Company, we offer both normal and highly specialized field
testing capabilities, including Menard Pressuremeter, Cone Penetrometer,
Permeability Testing, Environmental Soil Probe, Earth Resistivity
Testing, Diamond Core Drilling, and a host of other services. All-Terrain
and low-clearance equipment is available for both marine and onshore
projects. |
