Video: Geotechnical Engineering and Environmental Consulting

As the sun begins its day in the skies over the southeastern United States, United Consulting is already on the road.

For over 20 years, United Consulting has provided expert geotechnical and environmental consulting services for the built sector. Our firm offers a full range of services from pre to post construction as well as studies on developed structures. United Consulting provides more than distinct engineering and environmental services. We approach each project with a philosophy that the client's needs are paramount.

Welcome to United Consulting. We're here for you.

Over the decades, United Consulting has grown to 150 people strong including over 25 professionally registered engineers and geologists, allowing the firm to undertake some of the biggest and most challenging projects in the Southeast.

The Hartsfield International Airport 5th Runway project. In December 2002, United Consulting was awarded the Geotechnical Value Engineering and Construction Materials Testing contract for the new 5th Runway Bridge and Taxiway Bridge over I-285. (Line about the complex nature of the organization and United leading the team.)

Environmental consulting is both an art and a science. United Consulting performs hundreds of projects each year focusing on protection and restoration of the environment. We perform ecological and environmental assessment with significant regulatory interaction. Thus, we must understand not only the science, but the regulations governing this field. Our environmental services include everything from asbestos services to Brownfield sites to wetlands.

United Consulting is fortunate to have on its team the first two certified professional Brownfield engineers in the state of Georgia. Brownfields is a new process for the restoration of chemically impacted properties to facilitate their redevelopment. United Consulting has been at the forefront in Georgia on the implementation of its Brownfield Program.

Our clients often require existing property site inspections be prepared by an engineering firm as a condition of financing or re-financing a property. United Consulting has the experience and capability to perform these inspections.

 

United Consulting provides both Quality Assurance and Quality Control services. Our lab is fully equipped to perform triaxial shear strength tests, consolidation and permeability testing, asphalt content analysis as well as moisture/density relationship testing in both manufactured and naturally occurring materials.
United Consulting continues to broaden its technology to better meet the needs of its clients. In 1995, United Consulting became one of the first consulting engineering firms to introduce ground penetrating radar to the greater Atlanta development community. We continue to explore greater uses of GPR technology in all areas along with other non-destructive testing techniques including radar tomography.

And from project to project, United Consulting continues to lead the field in engineering.

Everyone in the company, from executives to field staff to project administrators is knowledgable, highly skilled, and motivated to provide unparalleled service.

The firm invests heavily in continuing education for its employees. As a result, employees stay abreast of the latest geotechnical methods and state-of-the-art equipment. Furthermore, we strive to educate our clients and colleagues on issues and services relevant to their industries.

Our monthly seminar "Lunch & Learn" series presents topics that are timely and useful. These classes are tremendously popular with our clients as they get a chance to learn more about the services they desire.

United Consulting is especially proud of its people behind the projects. The company's principals have been working together since before the founding of the firm two decades ago maintaining a close, family-oriented culture.

Our commitment to the community has been a key part of the way we do business since we first opened our doors.

We are proud of a company built on a philosophy. And moving forward we will stick to it whether we are working with a two man developer firm or with an international firm with 4000 employees.

United Consulting's team has been working together for decades and looks to uphold its high standards well into the 21st century. However large or small the project, United Consulting offers its wealth of experience and knowledge to get your project done in a timely and superior fashion.

United Consulting. We're here for you..
