Our techniques apply when adding new structures: especially rock anchor, microfine cement, soil nailing, micropile installations for foundation support. We specialize in slope stabilization, anchors, permeation grouting, foundation repair and support, grouting, soil nails, rock drilling, micropile installations, and sinkholes. We use a problem-solving approach geotechnical architecture of buildings, bridges, water plants, sewage plants, tunnels, sinkholes, caisson, shoring, underpinning, agriculture, and roads construction. We are experienced in these applications: micro piles, sinkhole repair, permeation grouting, pressure grout, soil nails, chemical grouting, micropiles, compaction grout, and rock anchors. Our specialties are rock anchor, acrylamide and compaction grouting, mini piles, sinkhole repair, micropiles, acrylamide grouting, and soil nailing. We will continue to dedicate ourselves to excellence, including insurance mortgage, in our performance, in our integrity, and in our relationships with our customers. We will carefully weigh our decisions, actions, and results to make sure that we remain the most trusted name in the geotechnical contracting industry.

the contract documents (refer to Section 2-1.03 of the Standard Specifications). The
Engineer must become completely familiar with the contract plans and their requirements.
The order of work and construction sequences must be thoroughly understood. A field
investigation should be made of the proposed project site and, to the extent possible, the
location of all utilities and obstructions should be verified. Note any con.icts or potential
problems.
Other documents to be reviewed are:
DOCUMENT
DESCRIPTION
RE Pending File Contains all the correspondence relative to a particular project and, therefore, provides
not only a historical outline of its development, but information relative to existing or
proposed utilities, potential problems and any other special considerations.
Preliminary Report Prepared by the Preliminary Investigations Unit of the Project Management Branch,
Office of Program/Project Management and Support. The report is based on information
furnished by the District and by data obtained during a field investigation of the
proposed site. The report furnishes the Project Designer with the required roadway
geometrics, clearances, proposed and existing utilities and/or obstructions, and will
discuss any potential problems or other special considerations.
Foundation Report Prepared by the Office of Structural Foundations and is a part of the Preliminary Report.
This report will contain a description of the area geology, a soil profile for selected
locations and the Engineering Geologists’ recommendations of foundation types. This
report is very informative and should be thoroughly reviewed. A foundation review
is made by the Project Designer and the Engineering Geologist prior to design
The contract plans and specifications, the aforementioned reports and a field investigation
of the site must all be reviewed for compatibility. It is important that all ambiguities,
discrepancies and/or omissions be resolved expeditiously so as to avoid unnecessary delays
in the work.
It is advisable to meet with the Project Designer and the Engineering Geologist to discuss
foundation details (refer to Bridge Construction Memo 130-1.0). If an on-site meeting is
impractical, the meeting should be held by telephone. Clarify and resolve any questions or
problems regarding foundations and foundation material. Now would be the appropriate
time to discuss the project with the Bridge Construction Engineer, preferably at the job site.
Once the contract documents have been reviewed and meetings with the Project Designer
and Engineering Geologist have been held, the Engineer should have a firm grasp of the
contract requirements for the project and the foundation conditions to be encountered at
various locations. Special attention should be given to those locations requiring extreme
care in performing the work and any remaining problems concerning utilities. These
