Atkinson Engineering, Inc., provides consulting engineering services for residences. Our specialty is failure analysis in the areas of foundation and structural engineering. We provide engineering consulting and evaluating of existing foundations and structures, and engineering design for new construction, additions, and repairs.
We have extensive experience (more than three thousand investigations and projects) involving the performance of foundations constructed atop the expansive clay soils that are prevalent in Central Texas.The shrinking and swelling of expansive clay soils have caused extensive damage to homes in Central Texas. Are you concerned that your foundation may need repair?
Are you concerned that under-slab plumbing leaks may have damaged your foundation? Determining whether plumbing leaks have affected a foundation first involves testing the sewer plumbing. If hydrostatic tests show the possibility of sewer pipe leaks, then a hydrodynamic flow test will show how much the plumbing may leak under normal use conditions.

Services
Atkinson Engineering staff evaluate existing foundations, design foundation repairs, and design new foundations.
Floor slab elevation surveys and three-dimensional analyses are used to help evaluate the performance of existing foundations.
Laser levels and distance meters are used to provide accurate representations of site conditions.
Specialized software is used to provide mathematically rigorous elevation contour representations.
Other software is used to generate three-dimensional models of the floor surfaces, and to separate the surface representation into its tilt and deformation components.

It is not meant to provide professional engineering services, so please call your engineer to discuss your particular concern.
It is not meant to provide legal services, so please call your lawyer to discuss legal matters.
It is divided into three sections: concrete slab-on-ground foundations, pier-and-beam foundations, and other questions.
What's important about a foundation is not whether it has one crack or one hundred cracks, but how the foundation performs its intended purpose.
How does expansive clay make my floor out of level?
