    Utilize building codes, technical knowledge of civil and geotechnical methods, and understanding of construction practices to establish repair scope recommendations as well as cause and origin analyses.

    Perform geotechnical analyses, including shallow and deep foundations, retaining walls, slope stability, trench work, temporary retaining systems, dams and flood control systems, storm water and drainage systems, pavements, liquefaction, settlement and seismic assessments.
