What We Do

Specialized engineering services for foundations, soil conditions, and structural stability

Nortier Engineering offers specialized engineering services related to foundations, soil conditions, and structural stability. Our goal is to provide clear engineering guidance that supports safe construction and long-term performance.

Foundation Design

A well-designed foundation is critical to the stability and longevity of any structure. Our foundation design services combine geotechnical data with structural engineering analysis to develop reliable systems tailored to each project.

Geotechnical Engineering

Understanding soil conditions is essential before construction begins. Our geotechnical engineering services evaluate the subsurface environment to determine how it will affect structural performance and provide the data needed to design safe and effective foundation systems.

Foundation Repair Engineering

Foundation problems can occur for many reasons, including soil movement, moisture changes, or construction issues. Our engineering evaluations help determine the cause of the problem and provide guidance on appropriate repair methods.

Clear Engineering Guidance

Our goal in every project is to provide practical, reliable engineering guidance that supports safe construction, permitting, repair evaluation, and long-term structural performance.

Foundation Design

Reliable foundation systems tailored to site conditions and project requirements

Foundation design services include:

Geotechnical borings
Geotechnical laboratory testing
Comprehensive geotechnical engineering reports
Engineered slab design

We design multiple types of foundation systems depending on site conditions and project requirements.

Post-Tensioned Cable Foundations
Post-tensioned foundations provide strength and flexibility by using tensioned cables within the concrete slab. These systems are often used where soil conditions require additional structural performance.

Steel Reinforced (Rebar) Foundations
Traditional reinforced concrete foundations provide durable structural support and are commonly used across many construction types.

Piered Foundation Systems
Pier systems transfer structural loads deeper into stable soil layers, providing additional stability in areas with challenging soil conditions.

Geotechnical Engineering

Evaluating subsurface conditions before construction begins

Geotechnical services include:

Subsurface soil investigation
Soil borings and sampling
Laboratory soil testing
Engineering analysis and reporting

This information helps reduce risk and ensures that the foundation design matches the conditions of the site.

Foundation Repair Engineering

Clear evaluation and repair guidance to restore structural stability

Our process typically includes:

Initial On-Site Engineering Evaluation
An in-person inspection of the structure and foundation conditions.

Engineering Desk Review for Permitting
Engineering documentation prepared for permitting and regulatory requirements when needed.

Final On-Site Engineering Evaluation
A final inspection to confirm repairs were completed in accordance with engineering recommendations.

Our goal is to provide clear, reliable engineering guidance that helps restore structural stability.
