Strengthening its position among leading surveying and civil engineering firms in Southern California, Mollenhauer has acquired RBA Partners, a prominent civil engineering concern.

"Mollenhauer has been a contributor to the architectural and building communities in metropolitan Los Angeles for more than eighty years," said Greg Hindson, President and CEO of Mollenhauer. "We're bringing RBA into the family to increase our capabilities for both our traditional private sector clientele and for public sector clients and projects."

RBA Partners has provided civil engineering expertise to a number of notable Los Angeles projects in recent years, including Our Lady of Angels Cathedral, the U.S. Bank Tower, the Ronald Reagan Medical Center at UCLA, the Getty Museum, and numerous projects for the Los Angeles Unified School District.

John Black, president of RBA, is enthusiastic about the future of his company with Mollenhauer. “Greg Hindson and I have known each other for a good many years,” said Black, “and the combination of RBA’s skills and capabilities with the reputation and resources of Mollenhauer will provide substantial benefits for all stakeholders.”

RBA will be joining Mollenhauer on the 40th floor of the Aon Building at 707 Wilshire Boulevard in downtown Los Angeles. Mollenhauer has been in business in downtown Los Angeles since 1924, and has participated in a wide variety of prominent construction projects in Los Angeles in recent years, including the Walt Disney Concert Hall, Dodger Stadium, the Galen Center at USC, the Los Angeles County/USC Medical Center, and the L.A. Live project. RBA is also the civil engineer for the Flight 93 National Memorial in Somerset, Pennsylvania.
