Civil & Geotechnical Engineering Consultants
At AYOPP, we offer comprehensive engineering services with a primary focus on Geotechnical Engineering, Environmental Consulting, Water Resources and Construction Support. Our work is rooted in time-tested engineering principles, technical accuracy, and a steadfast commitment to public safety and project performance.
Our Areas of Expertise
We specialize in delivering tailored engineering solutions for public agencies, private developers, contractors, and design professionals. Our core services include:
Dredging design & Soil Mechanics
Coal Combustion Residuals and Tailings Remediation
Slope Stability Analysis & Landslide Remediation
Earth Retention Design
Culvert & Drainage System Engineering
Hydrology & Water Resources Planning
Construction Quality Assurance
Whether you're constructing a pond, culvert, utility infrastructure of conducting environmental remediation, AYOPP provides the technical insight and dependable support you need—every step of the way.
To maintain a high level of quality control, AYOPP operates an equipped soils testing laboratory, managed by licensed Civil Engineers. Our lab adheres to ASTM and AASHTO testing protocols, providing accurate and timely results for:
Soil classification (Unified/USCS and AASHTO)
Compaction testing (Proctor – standard and modified)
Atterberg limits
Grain size distribution (sieve and hydrometer analysis)
Permeability, consolidation, and other specialized tests
This integrated capability allows us to deliver faster turnaround times, consistent data interpretation, and tighter project coordination.
Before a single yard of concrete is poured or steel driven, it is essential to understand what lies beneath the surface. Our geotechnical investigations involve: By characterizing the ground properly, we ensure that structures are supported on firm, well-understood foundations, reducing risk of future settlement, structural failure, or unanticipated costs.
Geotechnical engineering is critical in the planning and development of infrastructure. We evaluate ground stability, predict deformation, and design site-specific solutions to withstand real-world stresses—natural and man-made alike.
Nature cannot be controlled—but it can be understood, planned for, and mitigated. Our engineers are experienced in analyzing terrain and geological hazards, including:
Landslides and slope failure
Erosion, scour, and sediment transport
Flooding and stormwater infiltration
We assess soil behavior under extreme conditions and design engineering controls such as:
Engineered slopes and rockfall protection
Retaining walls and ground anchors
Surface and subsurface drainage systems
Ground improvement and stabilization techniques
While we embrace new technologies and evolving analytical tools, we remain grounded in the fundamental truths of soil behavior, engineering judgment, and real-world constructability.
Our philosophy is simple: build with confidence by understanding the ground beneath your feet.
AYOPP engineers work in close collaboration with architects, structural engineers, planners, developers, and public agencies to ensure that every project meets its technical, economic, and environmental goals.
Our process emphasizes:
Thoroughness in investigation
Soundness in design
Clarity in communication
Practicality in implementation
At AYOPP, we don’t cut corners—because we understand the price of failure. We believe in doing it right the first time. Whether you're planning a subdivision, retrofitting aging infrastructure, environmental cleaning or responding to a geologic hazard, you can count on us to provide dependable geotechnical support, backed by decades of experience and a reputation for integrity.
