Haines Gipson & Associates

Haines, Gipson & Associates was founded by two structural engineers, serving one client, from an office in the basement of one of the founder's home. Committed to the simple principle of "doing it the right way", HGA's leadership and team embody and perpetuate this same concept.

The result has been continued and steady growth as HGA has expanded to include more than 20 professionals, serving more than 200 clients in 48 states, successfully managing and completing more than 15,000 projects across the civil, structural and bridge engineering landscape.With a client-retention rate exceeding 90 percent, HGA attributes its success to four fundamental beliefs that support the founding principle of "doing it the right way."

With the average engineer retention of almost 20 years, HGA prides itself in providing expertise and knowledge to handle any project. We continually invest in our employees by ensuring our engineers continue their development through continuing education, seminars and lunch and learns. Sixteen of our 19 engineers are registered Professional Engineers, 3 are registered Structural Engineers and 2 are LEED certified.
