Geotechnical engineering is fundamental to all construction. The soil properties and water table are extremely variable. A geotechnical engineer evaluates the characteristics and behavior of subsurface soils, then interprets this data and makes recommendations on soils parameters that is used for foundation design or remedial purposes. Our geotechnical engineers understand the behavior of earth’s materials and their impact on a construction project which allows us to provide cost effective geotechnical design recommendations. Our geotechnical expertise and services includes:
Ø Subsurface Investigations
Ø Deep and Shallow foundation
Ø Post Tensioned Slab foundations
Ø Settlement analysis
Ø Slope stability analysis
Ø Retaining Structures
Ø Detention and Retention Pond
Pavement Engineering
ALPINE ENGINEERS undertakes geotechnical services for the design and recommendations for rehabilitation of pavements. Our services cover pavement recommendations for parking lots, local roads, and heavy industrial, commercial, and residential roadways. We analyze to optimize the life of the pavement and minimize the overall cost of the maintenance during its operational life. Our expertise and services include:
Ø Pavement design recommendations for streets and parking lots
Ø Pavement repairs and rehabilitation recommendations.
Forensics and Fault Study
We provide forensic investigations needed for cracked slabs, distressed pavements, tilted buildings, heaving and uplifting of foundation. We have expertise and capabilities to utilize Ground penetrative Radar (GPR) to assess the concrete slab integrity and thickness. Alpine Engineers (AE) also provides Phase I Geological Fault study in seismic hazardous sites.
