The Boring Company was founded to solve the problem of soul-destroying traffic by creating an underground network of tunnels. Today, we are creating the technology to increase tunneling speed and decrease costs by a factor of 10 or more with the ultimate goal of making Hyperloop adoption viable and enabling rapid transit across densely populated regions.

- Create geotechnical data reports, geotechnical interpretation reports, geotechnical design reports for tunnel and shaft construction
- Create temporary support of excavation designs, reports, and drawings
- Produce tunnel lining design documentation, including lateral earth pressure calculations
- Perform ground settlement and construction impact analysis of subsurface structures (e.g., shafts, tunnels) and 3rd party infrastructure (e.g., buildings, utilities)
- Create and oversee the implementation of settlement monitoring plans
- Plan and execute geotechnical investigations
- Assist in the collection and review of as-built drawings and existing geotechnical data for subsurface due diligence
- Provide geotechnical recommendations for construction means and methods
- Perform construction period observation and inspection
