What already sets Gorian apart

Practical answers to complex ground, since 1973.

Practical, cost-effective answers to complex ground, backed by five decades of Southern California work.

01

Three disciplines under one roof

Geotechnical engineering, engineering geology and earthquake engineering, plus consultation, observation and testing during construction.

02

An accredited laboratory

Soil and construction-material testing and special inspection, performed in your AASHTO and City of Los Angeles accredited lab.

03

Senior-led on every project

Each project is directed by a principal or senior professional whose experience most closely matches its requirements.

CRITICAL

Projects cannot start online

The only intake is a four-field feedback box — name, email, phone, feedback. No site address, no scope, no plan files reach the engineers who scope the work.

HIGH

Four disciplines share one page

Geotechnical, geology, earthquake and materials testing all live on a single Services page, so an engineer searching for one discipline never lands on it.

MEDIUM

A stock skyline stands in for the record

The hero is a generic city photo. Fifty years of Southern California projects and the AASHTO and City of Los Angeles accredited lab are invisible on arrival.

Where gorian.net can work harder

Your reputation is earned in the field. Online, it’s hard to see.

Engineers and developers shortlist consultants online before they call. Today gorian.net is two pages, a stock skyline and a four-field feedback form.

A Tuesday morning in Thousand Oaks 07:42:00 AM

A developer hits a slope-stability question before a 9 AM lender meeting. Where does the search land — and how fast does a senior engineer actually get involved?

The new gorian.net

From first visit to a scoped proposal.

Built around how your clients hire: the ground you understand, your disciplines and one clear way to start a project.

01
Your brand at full strength

Your original logo leads, and its strata colors replace the stock skyline until your project photos arrive.

02
Every discipline one click away

Geotechnical engineering, engineering geology and materials testing each open a page; earthquake engineering joins them.

03
One clear way to start a project

“Start a project” opens a request for site address, scope and plan files (PDF or DWG).
