Ground Improvement Engineering

Ground Improvement Engineering (GIE) is the leader in designing ground improvement. We’re passionate about advancing ground improvement technologies, building strong relationships, and delivering smart solutions for our clients’ toughest geotechnical challenges. For decades, we’ve helped developers and engineers turn difficult soil conditions into strong, buildable foundations. We’ve seen firsthand how innovative approaches reshape the way we build—saving time, reducing costs, and improving outcomes. That’s exactly what we do at GIE. Nearly 30 years ago, Geopier Foundation Company changed the industry with Rammed Aggregate Pier® (RAP) systems—an efficient alternative to deep foundations and over-excavation. Today, thousands of structures worldwide rely on these systems for reliable settlement control and cost savings. GIE (formerly Geopier Foundation Company – Midwest) proudly serves as the leading Geopier design team across the Midwest and Rocky Mountain regions. More than 25 years ago, we introduced a once-skeptical engineering community to the concept of ground improvement. Since then, we’ve completed thousands of successful projects—helping engineers and developers build smarter and faster. Our team is committed to delivering engineered solutions that reduce risk, drive savings, and ensure project success. RAP systems remain the preferred option over conventional alternatives due to decades of proven performance. When you choose GIE, you get more than a design—you get a trusted partner from early feasibility through construction oversight. Learn more: groundimprovementeng.com geopier.com
