GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING
A unique environment characteristic of Charlotte, North Carolina, is its soil, rocks, and groundwater. For major construction projects in the Charlotte area, geotechnical engineers need to be familiar with these properties to prove the best services. Our geotechnical capabilities in Charlotte provide NOVA with a wealth of knowledge and insight into local conditions that are vital to the design and construction of local projects.
It would be impossible to design a large structure without considering subsurface conditions that affect foundations and stability. In planning, design, and construction, our geotechnical team will work with you closely.
We have a team of engineers in Charlotte, North Carolina, with the regional experience and skills to help you bring your vision to fruition.
