Residential geotechnical engineering
Sampling, testing, and consulting for custom homes, hillside lots, and subdivisions so foundations sit on ground that is actually understood.
Expertise / Geotechnical engineering / Geology
Geology & geotechnical engineering
Delivering insight for safe, stable, and buildable sites. Earth-Strata samples, tests, and interprets the engineering properties of the earth’s strata for residential, commercial, and public work across California.
Services
Our experts specialize in
Commercial geotechnical engineering
Support for commercial pads, industrial sites, and land-use planning — from due diligence through construction observation.
Site exploration
Borings, test pits, and geologic mapping to identify hazards, collect samples, and describe subsurface conditions.
Engineering geologic reports
Site conditions, geologic hazards, and development constraints written for planning, design, and permitting.
Geotechnical engineering reports
Foundation, retaining-wall, grading, drainage, and pavement recommendations based on exploration and laboratory testing.
Slope and excavation stability
Assessment of slopes, excavations, and earthwork so cuts and fills stay stable through construction and occupancy.
Liquefaction and seismic evaluation
Seismic hazard analysis and liquefaction potential with practical risk-reduction recommendations.
Fault evaluation
Fault reconnaissance and geologic interpretation to support entitlements on sites with seismic sources nearby.
Soil and rock testing
Laboratory classification, moisture-density, and related ASTM testing of soils, aggregate, concrete, and asphalt.
Percolation and infiltration testing
On-site tests that inform stormwater design, drainage, and wastewater feasibility.
Field observation and testing
Grading observation, compaction testing, foundation observations, and daily field reports while the work is open.
