The Geotechnical Engineering Division of Lippincott & Jacobs Consulting Engineers comprises licensed professional engineers and skilled AutoCAD operators with years of experience in subsurface investigation and design. We understand that the conditions below the surface of the ground can greatly affect the feasibility of the project - physically and financially.

Our engineers have applied their expertise to a variety of geotechnical engineering projects, including investigations for one to 50-story buildings, dams, bridges, pavements, elevated water tanks, cell towers, earth support structures, soil surcharge with wick drains, grouting and remediation of distressed structures. Other projects include pile installation, compaction grouting and shallow and deep foundation projects for major industrial, office, retail and medical facilities.

Our staff of engineering professionals has been trained and educated in the methods of foundation design for the soil conditions of the Mid-Atlantic region. As geotechnical professionals it is our responsibility to evaluate those conditions thoroughly to provide our clients with the most reliable information on which to base their design and construction decisions.
