Memphis
Civil Engineering
Deals with creation and improvement of the society, protection of the environment, providing facilities for living, industry and transportation, including large buildings, roads, bridges, canals, railroad lines, airports, water-supply systems, dams, irrigation, harbors, docks, aqueducts, tunnels, and other engineered constructions. Listed below are some prominent type of civil engineering services specific to Memphis area.
Construction Management
Construction project management (CPM) or simply Construction Management (CM) is “a professional service that uses specialized, project management techniques to oversee the planning, design, and construction of a project, from its beginning to its end. The purpose of Construction Management is to control a project’s time, cost and quality.” Civil Engineers are often called on to manage building or infrastructure projects that are designed by others.
Environmental Engineering
Construction project management (CPM) or simply Construction Management (CM) is “a professional service that uses specialized, project management techniques to oversee the planning, design, and construction of a project, from its beginning to its end.

Expert Witness
The engineer verifies that all applicable rules and regulations are followed. The overall responsibility of the engineer as the project manager is to insure that the design plans are followed. The plans should have been designed using commonly accepted engineering standards and practices.
Land Development Services
The engineer verifies that all applicable rules and regulations are followed. The overall responsibility of the engineer as the project manager is to insure that the design plans are followed. The plans should have been designed using commonly accepted engineering standards and practices.
Land Surveying Services
Our surveyors have been surveying in Tennessee for over 30 years. We have experience in all types of land surveying. Some of these other survey types are more specialized. We do Residential Lot or Mortgage Survey, Boundary Survey, Construction Staking, Topographic Survey, Subdivision Survey, Elevation Survey, TNTA Survey. These are discussed below along with a brief explanation of each.
Structural Engineering
Structural engineering — a specialty within the field of civil engineering — focuses on the framework of structures, and on designing those structures to withstand the stresses and pressures of their environment and remain safe, stable and secure throughout their use. In other words, structural engineers make sure that buildings don’t fall down and bridges don’t collapse.
Transportation Engineering
Transportation engineering or traffic engineering is the “application of technology and scientific principles to the planning, design, operation and management of facilities for any mode of transportation in order to provide for the safe, efficient, rapid, comfortable, convenient, economical, and environmentally compatible movement of people and goods.”
