The principals of AGS have provided a full range of site development and construction services to satisfied clients throughout California. AGS employs registered civil and geotechnical engineers, engineering geologists, and construction inspectors for both private and public sector clients to address a wide variety of engineering and construction concerns.
AGS uses state-of-practice techniques and test procedures to investigate, analyze, and develop geotechnical engineering recommendations and designs for simple to complex problems relating to groundwater, soil, or rock.
We combine the history of your site with the most recent public information available to develop an opinion of the conditions, as well as a long-term work plan and recommendations.

AGS provides geologic studies. These studies include assessments of geologic hazards such as landsliding, fissuring, faulting, excavation characteristics of rock units, hydrogeology, and geologic characteristics of subsurface conditions, including downslope soil creep and subsidence.
The scope of studies varies from simple field reconnaissance to more complex evaluations of geologic conditions, using various subsurface and remote techniques.
Quality control for construction and industry is an essential part of assuring that the nationally recognized construction standards are being followed.
AGS’s construction inspection capabilities include all on and off-site field inspection required to be performed on nearly any construction project. We provide materials testing, inspection, and quality control services to the construction industry.
Our services are performed in our laboratory and at construction sites. We verify compliance with municipal, state, and national building codes and standards as well as project plans and specifications.
