Services
New Construction Design
We create comprehensive structural systems for new buildings, addressing gravitational, seismic, and wind forces. Our engineers optimize material usage while ensuring code compliance and constructability. Services include foundation design, framing systems, and structural analysis using advanced software tools.
Building Information Modeling
Our BIM implementation includes Revit Structure modeling for coordinated structural systems. We produce clash-free 3D models and construction documentation. This technology enhances collaboration with architects and contractors through improved visualization and data integration throughout the project lifecycle.
Condition Assessment
We conduct detailed evaluations of existing buildings to determine structural integrity and identify repair needs. Our assessments include material testing, load capacity analysis, and recommendations for remediation. This service supports renovation projects and maintenance planning for aging infrastructure.
Specialty Engineering
We provide specialized engineering for complex structural elements like curved forms, cantilevers, and seismic retrofits. Our team develops shop drawings and connection designs for unique architectural features. This includes forensic analysis and litigation support for structural failures.
Peer Review Services
Our independent peer reviews ensure structural designs meet safety standards and project requirements. We verify calculations, check code compliance, and identify potential constructability issues. This service helps clients mitigate risks and ensure quality in large-scale construction projects.
