Civil Engineering & Land Planning

Engaging with local residents, stakeholders, and community organizations to gather feedback, concerns, and ideas for infrastructure projects to ensure that they align with community values, needs, and priorities.

The initial stage of design development that focuses on exploring and communicating the fundamental ideas, functions, and forms of infrastructure projects to stakeholders and clients.

Overseeing and managing the construction phase of infrastructure projects to ensure that they are built according to design specifications, quality standards, and safety regulations while addressing any issues that may arise during construction.

Evaluating the population density, land use intensity, or traffic flow patterns in a specific area to inform infrastructure planning and design decisions.

Evaluating development proposals, plans, and permits to ensure that they comply with zoning regulations, environmental standards, and public safety requirements, while balancing the interests of developers, property owners, and the community.

The set of documents and applications required for obtaining the necessary approvals, permits, and entitlements from regulatory agencies and local government entities to develop or redevelop a property for a specific use or purpose.

The measures taken to prevent soil erosion, land subsidence, or foundation settlement, which may result from construction activities or natural causes, and can cause damage to infrastructure and harm to the environment.

Creating realistic or stylized visual representations of infrastructure projects using computer software, hand-drawn techniques, or a combination of both, to help communicate design intent to clients, stakeholders, and the public.

Designing the horizontal and vertical alignment, as well as the slope and elevation of the land surface, for infrastructure projects, such as roads, bridges, and site developments, to optimize functionality, safety, and environmental impact.

Obtaining the necessary approvals, licenses, and permits from regulatory agencies, local governments, and other stakeholders for infrastructure projects, to ensure compliance with legal and environmental regulations, and to mitigate potential risks and impacts.

Evaluating the physical, environmental, economic, and social factors of a specific location to determine the viability and suitability of developing infrastructure projects, and to identify potential challenges and opportunities.

Managing and controlling the quantity, quality, and flow of stormwater runoff, to minimize flooding, erosion, and pollution, and to promote sustainable use of water resources.

The design and documentation of the location, layout, and specifications of the utility systems, such as water supply, sewage, gas, electricity, and telecommunications, for infrastructure projects, to ensure their safe and efficient operation and maintenance.

The legal mechanisms that allow property owners or developers to deviate from the existing zoning regulations or land use requirements for their projects, subject to certain conditions and approvals from regulatory agencies and local governments.
