Headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, we also maintain offices in Cincinnati, Ohio, Louisville, Kentucky and Parkersburg, West Virginia, and have established a materials testing laboratory in the Columbus area, enabling us to serve a wide range of public and private clients throughout the three states.

A seasoned and innovative staff of engineers, inspectors and technicians whose efforts are supported with the most recent design software releases and progressive equipment, are encouraged in meeting continuing education goals to keep informed on current standards and industry innovations. These client-focused professionals average 20+ years of experience in the areas of civil, structural and geotechnical engineering and are equipped with extensive knowledge of City, County, State and Federal design manuals and specifications. Our staff are licensed, certified and possess extensive experience in their respective disciplines. Project Managers report directly to Principals Andrew Barr or Jim Prevost to assure that goals and deadlines are met, and relay information and updates immediately to engineering staff. This hands-on management style and assumption of responsibility provides for clear communication and allows for quick responses to possible concerns or changes in scope.
