Group Delta, an NV5 Company, is providing geotechnical services to support $1.2 Billion redevelopment of Seaport Village. The project will raise the shoreline for sea level rise from global warming. The project will also need to stabilize the shoreline from earthquake induced instability. Our team introduced a method of geotechnical shoreline stabilization that reduced estimated costs by about one-half over the previously considered structural stabilization. Our team assessed the potential for earthquake induced soil liquefaction and developed a concept design of the deep soil mixing stabilization in sufficient detail to obtain cost estimate from specialist contractors. Our team will continue to provide geotechnical services through schematic and detailed design.

This project demonstrates our abilities bringing and developing significant value engineering initiatives to our clients on large complex projects.

Added Value

• Innovative Cost-Saving Solution: Our team introduced a geotechnical shoreline stabilization method that cut estimated costs by approximately 50% compared to previously considered structural alternatives.
• Advanced Earthquake Resilience: Our team conducted detailed assessments of earthquake-induced soil liquefaction and developed a deep soil mixing stabilization concept, enabling accurate cost estimation from specialty contractors.
• Ongoing Expert Support: Our team continues to provide geotechnical services through schematic and detailed design phases, showcasing strong value engineering capabilities on large, complex coastal infrastructure projects.
