Ali Sacks, PE

    Ali was a substantial contributor to the planning and execution of geotechnical field investigations at over twenty potential tower sites. The investigations assessed geological and geotechnical conditions to provide foundation recommendations tailored to each site.

  Ali was the principal investigator for a combined geophysical and environmental investigation of multiple sites at the Bureau of Land Management’s Campbell Tract Facility in Anchorage, Alaska. She coordinated multiple subcontractors to accomplish all aspects of the project. She coordinated closely with the client project manager to ensure that project objectives were met. 

   Ali was the principal contributor to planning and execution of several geotechnical investigations in support of private developments at Anchorage International Airport (ANC). She oversaw the collection of drilling, drive penetrometer, and cone penetration testing data to assess subsurface conditions and develop geotechnical recommendations for aircraft pavements, horizontal directional drilling, and buildings.  

   Ali was the primary planner and field engineer for a community-wide geotechnical investigation assessing subsurface conditions for infrastructure including a raw water reservoir, above- and below-grade pipelines, water storage tanks, and sewage lagoons. She contributed to geotechnical design recommendations for all elements.
