Civil
GMU provides civil engineering services for a variety of projects, including those where the geotechnical conditions heavily influence project design. GMU has a unique ability to optimize a site plan and project design in order to best account for geotechnical and civil constraints. This unique experience is especially valuable on projects that include hillside grading, landslide repairs, retaining walls, etc.
