Civil & Site Services
Secondary practice area
Civil and site support when the project and license allow
Civil and site services are offered as a secondary practice area based on James Davis’s broader multidisciplinary experience. Availability depends on the project location, scope, and applicable licensing requirements. Service and sealing capability are confirmed before work begins.
If your project needs both structural and site work, send the location and available documents. JD Engineering will confirm which services can be offered before a proposal is prepared.
Grading and Drainage
Grading concepts and drainage paths that protect the structure, control runoff, and support constructable site work.

Civil and site questions
How civil services are offered and when they can be combined with structural design.
Civil and site services may be available based on project location, scope, and applicable licensing requirements. Availability is confirmed before work begins.
When the project and licensing allow, site and structural requirements can be coordinated so grading, drainage, and foundations are considered together.
