Experienced staff provides observation and testing services during construction of a wide range of projects including but not limited to residential, commercial, retail, industrial, institutional, municipal, and mixed-use projects throughout the mid-Atlantic region.
Based upon our experience with the soil conditions throughout the regions, along with our familiarity with personnel, documentation, and report requirements of the local agencies, GTA can quickly formulate resolutions to problems to minimize the impact on the proposed construction.
