Advanced Geotechnical Engineering Services & More

BLE provides the geotechnical engineering expertise your project needs.

Conducting a geotechnical investigation at a project site is essential to protect your investment and reduce the potential for significant problems and extra costs. BLE’s geotechnical engineers investigate the subsurface conditions on project sites and make recommendations that are economical and safe. This can include engineering design and evaluation of the construction of foundations, slopes, retaining structures, levees, dams, landfills or any structure composed of or supported by soil or rock. Our team of experts offer advanced geotechnical engineering services that help make determinations for the best subgrade preparations, pavement design, or foundation type for the structure in question.

Both foundation installation and future construction can be negatively affected if conditions aren’t investigated effectively. Our consultants routinely work with designers and contractors to inform them of potential difficulties before they become costly problems. With unique backgrounds and experiences in a variety of geologic conditions, BLE’s geotechnical investigation team possesses the talent, tools and experience to tackle each project, whether routine or unique.
