Geotechnical Engineering Services

At Omni Civil Engineering Solutions, our Geotechnical Engineering services form the essential foundation for safe, efficient, and sustainable site development. Before any structure can rise, a deep understanding of the ground it stands on is critical. That’s where we come in.

Our firm partners with certified geotechnical specialists to evaluate subsurface conditions, identify potential risks, and provide site-specific engineering recommendations that inform design and construction decisions. Whether we’re analyzing soil stability for a high-rise foundation, testing for groundwater infiltration on a roadway project, or mitigating risk for slope failure, our goal is the same: to ensure your project is supported by solid, science-based insights from the ground up.

We integrate geotechnical findings into our civil and structural design process to help reduce risk, improve constructability, and enhance long-term performance. With every borehole, core sample, and lab test, we bring clarity to complex subsurface conditions saving time, money, and future headaches.

Our Geotechnical Engineering Services Include:

Site Investigation & Soil Testing

  • Coordination of borings, test pits, and cone penetration tests (CPT)

  • Soil sampling and laboratory analysis (moisture content, Atterberg limits, etc.)

  • In-situ testing: Standard Penetration Testing (SPT), permeability tests, and vane shear

  • Identification of soil classification, compaction characteristics, and bearing capacity

Subsurface Analysis & Engineering Recommendations

  • Soil-structure interaction analysis

  • Shallow and deep foundation recommendations (e.g., spread footings, drilled piers, piles)

  • Groundwater monitoring and dewatering guidance

  • Slope stability evaluations and landslide risk assessment

  • Subgrade preparation guidelines for pavements and slabs

Foundation & Retaining Structure Design Support

  • Design parameters for foundations based on geotechnical data

  • Settlement analysis and differential movement prediction

  • Geotechnical input for retaining walls, basement walls, and deep excavations

  • Earth pressure calculations and recommendations

Risk Mitigation & Special Conditions

  • Identification and mitigation strategies for expansive clays, soft soils, or uncontrolled fill

  • Seismic site classification and liquefaction potential analysis

  • Ground improvement techniques (e.g., soil stabilization, geogrid reinforcement, compaction grouting)

  • Geotechnical support for critical infrastructure and FEMA flood zones

Reporting & Integration

  • Detailed geotechnical reports with CAD-ready data for design teams

  • Integration of geotechnical findings into civil and structural engineering models

  • Ongoing consultation during design and construction phases

  • Peer review of third-party geotechnical studies when needed

At Omni Civil Engineering Solutions, we treat every site as unique, because it is. Our geotechnical services deliver the ground truth your project needs to move forward with confidence. From feasibility to final design, we ensure that your foundations are not only structurally sound but geologically secure.
