03 / YOUR ENGINEER, INVOLVED
A deliberately small business. Personal engineering guidance for your project.
Maihan Noorzay brings over 20 years of engineering experience to your project. A licensed Professional Engineer (P.E.) and Geotechnical Engineer (G.E.), he holds a master’s degree in civil engineering with a specialization in geotechnical engineering. NGS pairs that experience with nine years of personal service to its clients.
Maihan Noorzay, M.S., P.E., G.E.Principal Engineer · Noorzay Geotechnical Services, Inc.04 / HOW WE WORK
From an initial conversation to engineering
recommendations and construction support.
Discuss the site, plans, project goals and requirements.
Develop the exploration and testing scope for the questions that matter.
Connect field and laboratory findings to practical engineering recommendations.
Coordinate the agreed observation and testing services as construction progresses.
A FEW COMMON QUESTIONS
A geotechnical engineer evaluates soil and subsurface conditions to inform construction. NGS provides investigations and recommendations for foundations, grading, settlement, expansive soils and slopes.
A soils report brings together the subsurface findings and engineering recommendations relevant to a proposed development. It helps the design team address foundations, earthwork, pavement and other site considerations.
Based in Riverside, NGS serves projects throughout Southern California. Email us with the project location and proposed scope so we can review the details and discuss the requirements.
Share the project location, available plans, a brief description of the proposed work and any agency comments or previous soils reports. We can then discuss an appropriate scope.
LET’S START A CONVERSATION
Email is strongly recommended. Maihan is often in the field. Emailing your project location, plans and questions helps us review the details and provide the best possible service.
