Advantage Engineers has provided geotechnical engineering services for institutional, industrial, commercial, telecommunication, and transportation projects. Our staff of has provided timely, professional, and cost effective geotechnical engineering services on over 1,200 projects.
Advantage Engineers has also completed numerous projects on sites underlain by karst geologic features (sinkhole prone areas). This experience has enabled Advantage to understand, manage, and minimize the risks associated with construction in these carbonate geologic settings. Our staff has provided solutions to foundation settlement caused by sinkhole propagation, including conventional underpinning, the use of helical piers and micropiles. Advantage has also designed ground-modification programs (i.e. compaction grouting), which minimize the potential for future sinkhole development and strengthen the soft, clayey soils characteristic of karst geologic settings.
