Engineering is the discipline of acquiring and applying scientific and technical knowledge to the design, analysis, and/or construction of works for practical purposes. Our experienced staff uses elements of geometry, engineering, trigonometry, mathematics, physics, and law to accomplish the task at hand.

 Working closely with federal, state and local regulatory agencies, and applying best management practices, or our staff of Engineers provide clients with cost effective, accurate and prompt services required for all types of engineering and design projects.

 Relying on years of experience and a commitment to learning, Godfrey-Hoffman's staff of Engineers use the latest construction methods to transform a property previously considered unbuildable into acceptable land for residential and commercial structures. Check out some blueprint samples of our work below!

Presentations given to the following regulatory agencies:
• Local Planning and Zoning Commissions • Local Zoning Board of Appeals
• Local Inland Wetlands Commissions • Local Engineering Departments • The State of Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) • The State of Connecticut Department of Transportation (DOT) • The United States Army Corps of Engineers

Consulting, designing, and planning are part of Godfrey-Hoffman’s engineering services for the Connecticut area. Many of these are civil engineering projects in central and southern Connecticut that range from the governmental to the homeowner level. Using skills from geometry, trigonometry, engineering, mathematics, and physics, the staff at Godfrey-Hoffman Associates completes its Connecticut engineering projects, transforming an unbuildable property into one that meets codes and is acceptable.

Civil engineering, the field in which Godfrey-Hoffman operates, focuses on the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and naturally-built environments. Common projects needing a physical engineer include bridges, roads, canals, dams, and buildings. Civil engineering is divided into subfields, such as environmental, geotechnical, structure, water resources, coastal, and construction engineering. Many of Godfrey-Hoffman’s Connecticut engineering projects, such as septic system designs and construction permitting, fall within these subfields.

Civil engineering projects are designed on small and large levels. For the latter, Godfrey-Hoffman Associates has given presentations for engineering projects to the Connecticut Department of Transportation and the State of Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection. On a smaller level, a local Connecticut engineering project will be commercial or residential planning and permitting. As civil engineering involves the interface of human-designed projects with the natural world, developing plans for grading, draining, pavement, water supply, sewer service, electric and communications supply, and land divisions services is common.

Godfrey-Hoffman Associates does consulting, designing, and planning with the latest construction methods for Connecticut civil engineering projects. Many of these projects include designing septic and storm water management systems, roadway and subdivision designs, commercial and residential site planning, construction permitting and management, feasibility studies, and planning and zoning board presentations.
