Engineering Geology is the application of the geologic sciences to engineering practice for the
purpose of assuring that the geologic factors affecting the location, design, construction, operation
and maintenance of engineering works are recognized and adequately provided for. Engineering
geologists investigate and provide geologic and geotechnical recommendations, analysis, and
design. Engineering geologic studies may be performed during the planning, environmental
impact analysis, civil engineering design, value engineering and construction phases of public and
private works projects, and during post-construction and forensic phases of projects. Works
completed by engineering geologists include; geologic hazards, geotechnical, material properties,
landslide and slope stability, erosion, flooding, dewatering, and seismic investigations, etc.
Engineering geologic studies are performed by a geologist or engineering geologist educated,
professionally trained and skilled at the recognition and analysis of geologic hazards and adverse
geologic conditions. Their overall objective is the protection of life and property against damage
and the solution of geologic problems.
