Educational Facilities

From UC and CSU campuses to K-12 districts, Pacific Crest supports educational facilities across the Bay with geotechnical, materials, and inspection services — including DSA-governed work.

University of California, Santa Cruz

Pacific Crest Engineering Inc. and Raas and Associates, Inc. (who merged with Pacific Crest Engineering in 2001) have been providing quality geotechnical engineering services to the University since 1988. Our extensive experience and technical knowledge surrounding a complex myriad of soil and rock conditions that define the unique campus geology has assisted the University in completing several large-scale projects in very challenging geotechnical conditions. We remain dedicated to an established track record of past and present projects on the UCSC Campus, which include the following:
