Civil Engineer recommendations

[Stephen Ferland]

Hi all,

I live just north of Boston. The retaining wall in front of my house is in need of repair and I'm in search of a Civil Engineer. I'm having a hard time finding a Civil Engineer or firm that works on residential projects. The city requirements are below:

Any person erecting, altering or constructing a wall of three (3) or more feet in height along or within ten (10) feet of a property line, public way or private way; for the purpose of retaining any organic, inorganic or any other material, shall have the following material prepared by a registered civil engineer and submitted to the City Engineer:

A site plan drawn to a scale of at least forty (40) feet to the inch indicating at least the location of the wall, distance to structures and property lines within one hundred (100) feet, and existing and proposed topography to at least two (2) foot contours.

A detailed three (3) dimensional construction plan of the wall drawn to a scale of at least forty (40) feet to the inch.

Detailed construction specifications.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Steve
