Reducing uncertainty regarding soil properties can lead to lower construction costs. Working with AET's sophisticated investigation and laboratory testing tools, along with our experienced geotechnical engineers, your design team gains accurate data and thoughtful recommendations to select appropriate foundation materials. We were the first geotechnical engineering firm in the area to offer piezocone penetrometer testing, more than a decade ago, to augment traditional soil boring methods. Using these tools to collect more accurate and detailed subsurface soil information can lead to more precise recommendations and less expensive foundation systems.
In addition to our decades of experience in geotechnical engineering, AET offers a highly trained staff of experienced technicians, engineers and geologists to service all of your construction materials testing and special inspections needs. Whether you need observations of soil excavations, reinforcing steel, concrete, masonry placement or structural steel placement and their connections, AET is the firm to assist you in project specification conformance throughout the design and construction phases of your project.
