Does NOVA understand Panama City's unique coastal and geological conditions?
Absolutely. Every region presents its own unique subsurface conditions that can affect major construction projects. Panama City Beach is no exception.

NOVA Engineering's Panama City Beach team has deep knowledge of the area and can provide critical technical insight for your project.
Does NOVA have experience with hurricane damage assessment in Panama City?
Yes! NOVA has significant experience with hurricane damage assessment and forensic testing in the Panama City area. Following Category 5 Hurricane Michael in October 2018, our team conducted forensic water infiltration testing on the Marina Civic Center using dynamic water pressure testing to recreate the extreme storm conditions. This work helped Panama City officials petition FEMA for additional funds to replace the Civic Center.
