THE FOUNDATION OF
YOUR SUCCESS.
GEOTECHNICAL
As communities grow, the infrastructure that serves the public also is continuously changing and evolving. With this change come challenges that require a team that is integrated and capable of responding to the challenges. Albert Einstein once said that “scientists investigate that which already is; engineers create that which has never been.”
An engineering marvel is only as good as the foundation it rests on. Although engineering is a science, geotechnical engineering is an art. It requires a deeper, geological, historical look at the studied site and its surrounding area in order to develop a thorough understanding of likely subsurface conditions, allowing for the consideration of geotechnical risks and opportunities in the design.
McClure’s integrated geotechnical design team assists our internal and external private and public clients in analyzing geotechnical needs and providing technical assistance throughout the project development cycle from concept through commission. The geotechnical engineering team at McClure can provide the following services.
