GeoKinetics engineers are highly experienced
in geotechnical engineering analysis and design, and are proud of
their ability to provide practical solutions to complex problems
using innovative and state-of-the-art techniques. GeoKinetics staff
has provided geotechnical engineering analysis and design services
on a wide spectrum of civil engineering projects, including transportation
and utility corridors, large commercial and industrial developments,
power plants, offshore and onshore pipelines, tunnels, subterranean
pumping stations, landslides and slope stabilization measures, dams
and reservoirs, and offshore facilities. GeoKinetics' capabilities
in geotechnical engineering design and analysis include:
- Pile foundation analysis and design, including determination
and
confirmation of axial and lateral load capacities;
- Development and review of construction specifications
- Construction permitting, observation, and testing as well
as post
construction performance monitoring;
- Analysis and design of spread footing foundations;
- Roadway and pavement design;
- Evaluation of soil pressures on buried or retaining structures;
- Design of shoring or tie-back retention systems;
- Groundwater and contaminant transport modeling;
- Groundwater extraction and de-watering operations;
- Ground improvement/modification techniques and specifications;
- Design and evaluation of earth retaining structures;
- Two and three-dimensional slope stability analysis;
- Liquefaction risk assessments and seismic stability analysis;
- Evaluation of seismic induced settlements;
- Earthquake ground motion response analysis;
- Soil/structure interaction under static and dynamic loading
conditions;
- Design, analysis and instrumentation of earth dams and embankments;
- Design and analysis of onshore tower and offshore platform
foundations;
- Vibration measurement and analysis; and others.
In addition to the extensive hands-on project experience acquired
by our personal, GeoKinetics offers strong analytical capabilities. We have
established
a comprehensive library of analytical computer programs, ranging from
conventional slope stability, settlement, and shoring-related routines,
to a wide
range of sophisticated linear and non-linear finite element and finite
difference
based computer programs for static and seismic soil/structure interaction
analysis,
static and dynamic response of deep and shallow foundations, embankments,
or
natural slopes, earthquake induced liquefaction potential and stability
analysis, and
time dependent responses of foundations or underground openings.
