Civil engineers design and build much of the infrastructure we encounter on a daily basis. From roads and bridges, to sewers and dams, civil engineers have shaped the landscapes in which we live.
Our civil engineers are often retained to help resolve disputes over the quality, cost, and timeliness of construction projects. As construction professionals, they are also frequently engaged to investigate construction injury cases.
We have experienced civil engineers who can handle residential site development, road layout and drainage, commercial development, and water treatment and distribution issues. Our civil engineering experts specialize in the designing, planning, maintenance, and construction of buildings and the alteration of the geographic layout to accommodate human needs.
We have civil engineers located in most of our regional offices, many with unique areas of expertise.
Robson Forensic offers a fully appointed mechanical testing laboratory to assist our clients with the inspection and storage of evidence in civil engineering cases.
