R&M has been extremely active in
the field of geotechnical engineering in Alaska. Our
firm has made a strong commitment to defining the geotechnical
and foundation conditions in Alaska’s highly variable
terrain that directly affect subsequent design efforts.
R&M has provided extensive route studies and slope
stability analyses for roads, bridges, pipelines, major
site developments, airfields and military facilities.
R&M provided major support services
on projects such as the Trans Alaska Pipeline System,
Alaskan Northwest Natural Gas Transportation System,
and the formerly proposed state capitol site near Willow.
Our geotechnical engineering capabilities are enhanced
by the availability of our modern test laboratory facilities
and state-of-the-art computer systems for simulating
the behavior of soil, rock and construction materials.
