On site and in the lab, Summit brings state of the practice equipment and advanced technology to bear on geotechnical and construction materials problems. The Summit distinction, however, is not one of equipment and technology, but of experienced professional people and a commitment to deploying them to solve the problem at hand. The managing engineers of the firm, whose reputations bring in the business, maintain intimate contact with the client throughout each project as the work is done. This is an essential Summit ingredient: the managing engineer remains in charge, and the client reaps the reward in accountability and responsibility.

In the field, as well as our laboratory, Summit performs a wide range of Construction Materials Inspections and Tests, including concrete, steel, soil, masonry, fireproofing and more. Our technicians maintain various certifications through NICET, ACI, AASHTO, ASTM and NCDOT. Our laboratory is NCDOT certified to perform Tier 1 and Tier 2 soil test methods. Our laboratory, equipment, procedures, and personnel are inspected by various agencies of the National Institute of Standards and Technology including CCRL and AMRL. Our strict Quality Control / Quality Assurance programs are also assessed to ensure that all tests are performed in accordance with nationally recognized standards.

During a construction project, quality control of construction materials and methods is crucial to the success of the project. Owners and the construction team have a need for precise and timely testing and inspection of construction materials and techniques. Summit Consulting provides dedicated full-time project engineers and experienced engineering technicians that will give you confidence your project is being constructed consistent with your expectations.
