Our Client Say!!!
Cathy
President, Civil and Environmental Engineering Firm
Our company is an engineering firm that provides a variety of services with an emphasis on transportation projects, including Hydraulics, Roadway Design, Bridge Design, Project Management, Traffic Studies, Environmental, Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE), Utility Coordination and Construction Management/Monitoring and Inspection. We have used Sterling (amongst other recruiters) to find bridge engineers and traffic engineers. We have found the company to give qualified people for us to interview and hire. They are very responsive when help is needed setting up interviews etc. Also their rates are better than any competition we have worked with. So if you’re looking to hire specialty engineers, we strongly recommend you to contact them.
Steve
Talent Acquisition Manager, Construction Firm
Sterling has been extremely professional, consistent, and productive. They have doggedly pursued applicants and presented to us for many months. We have hired one of their candidates, recently. I have been recruiting for 27 years, as an independent contractor, as a recruiting agency and as a corporate recruitment leader. I have worked in their industry, and they are among the very best I have worked with! I highly recommend them to any client and industry.
Tony
President/CEO, Design Services Firm
We have worked with iQuasar (doing business as Sterling) over the past three years to identify talented Engineers in all disciplines for our staffing needs. Sterling has provided great talent for us to interview and hire. It is my humble opinion that this company is a great recruitment agency that provides you talent based upon your specific skill sets needed to fulfill your staffing requirements. I highly recommend them as a viable source of staffing.
Tom
Founder, Structural Engineering Firm
As a small engineering firm registered in 49 states, we can get overwhelmed with work. When our schedules get full, we turn to Sterling’s services to help us meet our clients’ needs. Their professional 24-hour team delivers quality work on time and within budget. We highly recommend them for your drafting and design needs for any project that demands high-quality results in a short timeframe. You will never have to worry about missing project deadlines with Sterling on your team.
Gerard
Architecture & Engineering Firm
Our company is an award-winning, New York State-based, multi-disciplinary architecture, engineering, environmental, and land surveying consulting firm. We have used Sterling for our engineering staffing needs. We have recently hired one of their candidates. They find good candidates and don’t forward just anyone for my review. The candidates are of good quality. Their recruitment team is very professional, and I recommend them for staffing services.
Luke
Structural Engineering Firm
I was impressed with their responsiveness and special attention to our project. We had weekly meetings, as I requested, and meetings were productive. They were able to address the results of our meetings satisfactorily and in a timely manner. I would not hesitate to use them for specific drafting services in the future. I consider them a valuable resource.
FAQ'S
Yes, we do provide Stormwater modeling and design services for all types of detention and retention systems.
We provide sustainable solutions like green infrastructure design which includes bioswales and rain gardens that effectively filter stormwater, reduce runoff, and enhance groundwater recharge.
We have Experts working with us from the US, who have extensive experience and ensure that the work we do is compliant with local, state, and federal stormwater regulations and permitting.
We can only cater to all the design needs concerning erosion and sediment control measures for construction sites.
We employ a variety of advanced modeling techniques to accurately predict and analyze stormwater runoff. Key tools and methods include:
- HydroCAD: A versatile tool for designing and analyzing stormwater management systems, including detention basins, ponds, and infiltration practices. HydroCAD simplifies complex hydrologic calculations and provides detailed reports.
- Hydraflow: Integrated with Autodesk’s Civil 3D, Hydraflow enables comprehensive stormwater analysis and design, offering features for modeling storm sewers, detention ponds, and inlet capacities.
- HEC-HMS: Simulates the precipitation-runoff processes of dendritic watershed systems, providing a robust framework for flood forecasting and hydrologic analysis.
- HEC-RAS: Models the hydraulics of water flow in natural rivers and other channels, essential for floodplain management and flood risk assessment.
- SWMM: Developed by the EPA, this tool is used for dynamic rainfall-runoff simulation and water quality analysis in urban areas.
GIS Integration: Utilizing GIS tools like ArcGIS and QGIS, we analyze spatial data to model watershed characteristics, flow paths, and runoff patterns.
We ensure the effectiveness and longevity of stormwater management practices in challenging terrain or urban environments by conducting detailed site-specific assessments, using advanced modeling tools like HydroCAD and Hydraflow, and integrating green infrastructure solutions. This approach ensures robust, sustainable, and adaptable stormwater management systems.
Our expertise in green infrastructure for stormwater management includes designing and implementing bioretention systems, such as rain gardens and bioswales, which naturally filter and absorb runoff. Additionally, we utilize permeable pavement solutions to allow water infiltration, reducing surface runoff and promoting groundwater recharge. These sustainable practices enhance stormwater management while improving water quality and urban aesthetics.
We assess and mitigate the impacts of land use changes on surface water quality and quantity by conducting detailed site analyses, using hydrologic models like SWMM, HydroCAD, and Hydraflow, and implementing best management practices (BMPs). For flood forecasting and risk assessment, we utilize advanced tools such as HEC-HMS, HEC-RAS, and GIS-based models to predict flood behavior and develop effective mitigation strategies.
