Slope Stability ​

Geotechnical evaluations that support safe, resilient earthwork—and solve slope challenges before and after failure ​

D.W. Kozera, Inc. provides slope stability analysis for natural terrain, constructed embankments, reinforced slopes, and earth retention systems. Our geotechnical engineers use field data and advanced modeling to evaluate slope performance under both current and proposed conditions. These analyses guide safe site grading, infrastructure development, and construction sequencing. ​

In addition to supporting new construction, we provide forensic evaluations and design input for slope failures already in progress or previously observed. From transportation corridors and streambanks to building sites and utility rights-of-way, we help teams understand the cause of instability and implement practical, long-term remediation strategies. ​
