Geotechnical and Civil Engineering

TRC Raviv provides both traditional geotechnical engineering services including the design of foundations, retaining walls, and embankments, as well as environmentally focused geotechnics involving projects such as lagoon closures, sludge stabilization and the design and construction of encapsulation systems.  These “capping systems” may include the use of compacted fills, clay and synthetic liners, slurry walls, sheet piling, hydraulic barriers, deep soil mixed in-place barriers, and reaction walls.  TRC Raviv has designed several projects employing the use of stabilized dredge materials, which are economically attractive for use in the construction of compacted fills and encapsulation systems for landfills and contaminated sites.  Many projects are located in industrialized areas of New Jersey, where landfills or Brownfield sites are being redeveloped for beneficial reuse.
