GAI’s Residential Development team encompasses disciplines ranging from master planning to civil engineering. From the ground up, our professionals skillfully compose the elements (roadway, traffic, stormwater, utilities, etc.) vital to turning a parcel of land into a thriving subdivision. Our engineers are dedicated to creating innovation, solutions, and achieving project goals—they’ll take the time to ensure your vision is accomplished.
To help achieve this, our engineers stay up to date with all local, state, and federal regulations. We spearhead challenges and streamline the design process using Civil 3D to develop and visualize projects in the design stage.
Utilizing cutting-edge technology improves productivity, accuracy, and produces maximum profitability for your development. The GAI team is at the forefront of the latest Low Impact Development (LID) technologies, which reduce infrastructural costs for ponds, curbs, and gutters, resulting in lower life-cycle costs.
