Design Services

All designs are prepared by our Professional Engineer.

1

Site Design

Site plan, that renders the existing and design conditions, typically includes topography, drainage, flood plains, wetlands, waterways, buildings, structures, signs, parking spaces, walkways, driveways, traffic circulations, utility services, lightings, etc. Site plan is a development plan of one lot or more lots on which is shown information that may be reasonably required in order to make an informed determination pursuant to an ordinance or regulations.

2

Septic System Design

Septic system is an individual subsurface sewage disposal system, and its design considerations usually include presence and depth of limiting zones, sewage volume, soil characteristics, soil permeability, surface drainage, topographic slope and waste type. Our design will also accommodate ground access for maintenance and servicing.

Construction Design

Construction Plan is a drawing with sufficient clarity and detailed dimensions to show the nature and character of the design to be performed. Our site construction design contains foundations, structural frames or pavements. The design can be expanded to include calculations, cross sections, elevation profiles, footing excavations, graphics, pavement systems, wall assemblies, and other applicable requirements. In addition, a Soil Erosion and Sediment Control plan may be required when the construction has large disturbance.

We drive for excellence. Our standard designs include necessary aspects of health and safety. In addition to our standard code-compliance designs, we offer fee-based advisory services as a consulting freelancer, and further include other design considerations for economical cost, constructability, aesthetics and sustainability.

Environmental engineering services of our consulting freelancer include channel modifications, engineering and institutional controls, PA/SI/RI investigations, permit applications, Phase II site assessment, remediation for CVOCs and petroleum products, underground storage tank closure, wetland delineation and mitigations, and other regulation compliances.
