Our History
In the early 2004, Rozbeh B. Moghaddam and Prof. Carlos Yzquierdo started a company, YZMO Geotecnia, S.C. (“YZMO”), with headquarters in Mexico City to provide Geotechnical Engineering design services for commercial, residential, and transportation projects in Mexico. In 2006, YZMO expanded its operations to the Central and South America. Due to Prof. Yzquierdo’s prior experience with the design and construction of the Metro system in Mexico City, in 2007, YZMO was selected as the External Consultant to the Mexico City transportation authorities during the design and construction of the Mexico City’s Metro Liner 12.
Unfortunately, with the departure of Prof. Yzquierdo from YZMO, due to health complications, YZMO’s operations were narrowed to specialized consulting in foundation remediations for structures under excessive movement due to Mexico City’s subsidence. Rozbeh continued providing support to clients in Mexico City on a part-time basis while he worked on his Doctoral degree at the Texas Tech University focusing on the Load and Resistance Factor design of deep foundations in Texas. In 2016, upon completion of his Doctoral studies, Rozbeh joined GRL Engineers, Inc. (“GRL”) supporting GRL’s Research and Development team.
In 2019, RBM was formed in San Antonio, TX to continue YZMO’s legacy and provide consulting services in the United States, and supporting former clients in Mexico, Central and South America. A new segment was added to RBM to provide expert consulting in the Oil and Gas industry. Currently, RBM provides consulting services in the Geotechnical Engineering industry as well as the Oil and Gas industry.
