Solid Foundations for Your Projects
gbi’s impact on our collective landscape
In civil engineering, every building relies on careful planning and well-designed foundations. At gbi, we support our clients through every stage, from soil studies to exterior development, ensuring the longevity and performance of their projects.
Our expertise encompasses the design and sizing of foundations, the integration of technical networks, drainage, and stormwater management, always in compliance with standards and environmental requirements.
Complete Solutions for Your Projects
Every project begins with a geotechnical analysis to understand the soil conditions and constraints. This data allows us to design appropriate foundations, footings, piles, or slabs, capable of supporting the building’s weight and withstanding natural ground movements.
We design the technical networks essential to a building’s operation:
- Sanitary sewers for wastewater disposal to the municipal network.
- Storm sewers for managing rainwater, including ditches, sumps, and retention basins when necessary.
- Water mains for the supply of potable water.
- Utility conduits for electricity, telecommunications, and gas.
Our teams design access roads, sidewalks, parking lots, and curbs, taking into account slope management and surfacing to prevent water accumulation and ensure user safety and comfort.
We analyze runoff areas and propose solutions such as French drains, sumps, and conduits. Our approach complies with environmental standards to protect the land and surrounding waterways while ensuring the durability of the infrastructure.
