About GB Engineering
Who we are
The letters ‘G’ and ‘B’ stand for Gaddie and Branch which are the first names of the founders children; and the motivation behind GB Engineering. The future of the world is in the next generation, and as cliché as it sounds, the construction industry and the process by which we envision, design, and build projects is changing faster than ever before in history; and we should be considering the legacy we are leaving behind with our projects.
All land development projects are unique, with each location having its own distinctive design challenges and local regulations. By taking a creative approach using conventional civil engineering practices, we can, and have numerous times, come up with simple solutions to challenging situations.

We take pride in client relations as we focus on responsiveness and cost-effective designs to overcome any challenges presented throughout the development process.
Our experienced and diverse engineering team works hand in hand with municipalities, owners, developers, builders, architects and engineers to ensure we deliver a high-quality product in a timely manner.
A need and an Idea…
It all begins with an idea to meet a need. Maybe you want to launch a new business, expand an existing one, or build a new subdivision to provide housing to others. Whatever your construction project might be, we can help. If we can not help, or you do not need a civil engineer, we can explain who you do need, and recommend a path for you to reach your goals.
A concept…
A simple concept can see if the land and layout will fit the needs of the client. Things like floodplains, utilities, easements, Platting, drainage, stormwater management, density and local ordinances all play a major part in developing a piece of land. Talking thru the site challenges and the potential operations can fine tune a site for maximum use and function.
Go Build it…
Once plans are approved by the local governing authority, we can help with bid documents, pre construction meetings, and on-site inspections to ensure your plans are being built correctly. A construction project typically includes a large financial commitment, so we are here to help protect your investment and keep your costs down with both our design fees, and smart plans to minimize construction costs.
