Civil Engineering

The Civil Engineering Operation is made up of a skilled team of civil engineers. Our professional engineers and technicians have extensive experience on a variety of projects. With engineers licensed in multiple states, we have the ability to offer a broad range of engineering services to a large network of clients.

Environmental Engineering

The Environmental Engineering Operation has been performing environmental consulting services for over 30 years. Our experience originated with the traditional aspects of environmental engineering such as wastewater treatment and waste management, but over the years we have expanded our expertise to include a broader range of environmental services to better serve our clients. The environmental staff bring a wealth of knowledge to our clientele.

Geotechnical Engineering

The Geotechnical Engineering Operation is comprised of geotechnical engineers, laboratory technicians and scientists. We operate specialized drilling equipment necessary to work in rough terrain, with the ability to drill holes to depths of more than 300 feet and to obtain adequate recovery of samples of rock and soil.

The Iron Mountain, Michigan laboratory has been granted accreditation by the AAP (AASHTO Accreditation Program). Scope of testing can be found on the AAP Directory of Accredited Laboratories.
