Geotechnical Engineering

Grounded in Expertise, Built for Performance

At JMT, we understand that every successful project begins with a solid foundation. Our geotechnical engineering team delivers comprehensive services that evaluate subsurface conditions and provide practical, cost-effective solutions to support safe, resilient, and efficient infrastructure.

We offer a full range of geotechnical services, including site investigations, foundation design and inspection, dam and retaining wall design, slope stability evaluations, and pavement engineering. Our team also specializes in ground modification systems, dewatering and subdrainage design, and construction-phase support. We tailor each investigation to the unique geologic and environmental conditions of the site, ensuring that our recommendations are both technically sound and constructible.

JMT’s geotechnical engineers bring deep experience in field exploration, laboratory testing, and advanced analysis. We’ve supported projects involving seismic site classification, settlement mitigation using vertical drains and surcharge embankments, and the reuse of on-site soils for loadbearing fills.

Our team works closely with structural, civil, and environmental disciplines to integrate geotechnical recommendations into cohesive, buildable designs.

Whether you’re planning a bridge, roadway, building, or utility corridor, JMT provides the insight, precision, and collaboration needed to manage risk and deliver lasting performance from the ground up.

Let’s lay the groundwork for your next project.
