Sometimes geotechnical firms are lacking in experienced staff to perform adequate reviews of design concepts and calculations. Don’t let that be an excuse for not doing them, NCSG can help!
Construction Consultation
Most geotechnical firms stop providing services when the report or plans go out the door, not NCSG! NCSG is prepared to assist owners or contractors in dealing with difficult or unexpected conditions during the construction phase.
Forensic Analysis and Expert Consultation
When structures experience deformation, or worse, you want an experienced geotechnical firm that can analyze why the failure occurred, and if necessary, determine any negligence or faulty designs.
Value Evaluation and Risk Evaluation
While a particular design may be perfectly acceptable, it isn’t always the best fit for the project parameters, or the most economical. NCSG can leverage its significant experience to help reduce project costs and reduce risk.
Training Courses and Webinars
Naresh Samtani, the president of NCSG has been teaching geotechnical courses to Departments of Transportation (DOTs) all over the country.
Practical Research and Development
Research and Development is a little different at NCSG than at other, more academic institutions. NCSG’s research involves active engineering projects with both time and budgetary constraints.
Geotechnical Standards and Policies
NCSG has been helping various agencies setup their geotechnical standards and policies to address the rapidly changing state of the practice.
Asset Management
See how NCSG can use innovative approaches to management assets in the age of shrinking funding resources.
Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD)
NCSG has worked with several agencies including FHWA and ADOT to implement the new AASHTO LRFD specifications into practice.
Update for November 2019-April 2020
A lot of significant milestones have been achieved over the last 6 months. Five (5) of these milestones are briefly noted below: Award of an FHWA contract to develop the […]
