Civil Engineering
The Nautilus team is lead by licensed Civil & Environmental Engineering Professionals with experience that spans across the entire US. From 1,000+ acre industrial and manufacturing facilities to 0.15 acre single-family residential lots, there is no job too big or too small for our design team.
SITE OPTIMIZATION
Nautilus utilizes the latest technologies developed specifically to provide fast and efficient site designs, followed by optimized earthwork design performed by powerful cloud computing software.
We begin your site design project in the powerful Bentley SITEOPS software to quickly produce multiple Conceptual Site Design options (“Optioneering”), followed by a SITEOPS earthwork optimization. Your project is then transferred into Autodesk AutoCAD Civil 3D to undergo more detailed 2D layout and 3D earthwork, drainage, and utility systems design.
These “BIM” for Civil Engineering software suites allow Nautilus engineers to constantly check and optimize designs throughout the entire design phase of the project, resulting in significant cost savings during construction.

DESIGN &
ENGINEERING
Nautilus designs focus on both Form and Function.
Any engineering company can draw inside the box, with just enough thought provided to produce a plan set to meet the minimum requirements. We dream, sketch, engage our clients, analyze both the technical and aesthetic details, refine, and optimize.
Form
Beautification of the built environment.
Function
Optimizing the physics of the built environment.
