Architectural Engineers Collaborative

Our Story

Architectural Engineers Collaborative (AEC), founded in 1998, is a firm deeply rooted in the belief that structural engineering and architectural design are intrinsically linked. Our experienced team of engineers emerged with a vision to practice architectural engineering, a discipline that goes beyond mere calculations and cost analysis. We strive to understand the interplay between structure and the building as a whole, recognizing that a building's form, function, sustainability, and aesthetic appeal are all interwoven elements. We believe that our contribution as structural engineers elevates the integrity and impact of every project we undertake. This philosophy has driven us to forge lasting partnerships with architects and clients alike, ensuring that our designs not only meet functional requirements but also contribute to the realization of creative visions.

In 2023, AEC joined forces with TYLin, a globally recognized engineering powerhouse with over 3,000 professionals across its network. This union amplifies AEC's capabilities and fosters collaborations on a broader scale, enriching the value we bring to our clients. TYLin, established in 1954 by Tung-Yen Lin, has ascended to international prominence through its unwavering commitment to excellence and its ability to connect top-tier technical expertise across diverse geographies. Initially focused on bridge engineering, TYLin has expanded its expertise to encompass all aspects of transportation, buildings, and water resources, contributing to landmark projects worldwide.

Our Approach

At AEC, we recognize that each project is unique, demanding individualized attention and a tailored approach. We believe that open communication and collaboration are essential to understanding our clients' needs and aspirations. This collaborative spirit extends to our relationships with architects, allowing us to seamlessly integrate structural design into the broader architectural vision. Our team of engineers brings a wealth of experience and technical expertise to every project, staying abreast of the latest advancements in structural engineering while upholding the highest standards of quality and safety.

We are committed to delivering innovative and economical solutions that address the specific challenges presented by each project's site, program, and sustainability goals. We strive to create structures that are not only functionally sound but also aesthetically compelling, contributing to the beauty and longevity of the built environment.

We envision structural engineering as an art form, where precision and creativity converge to realize inspiring designs. Our dedication to excellence, innovation, and collaborative partnerships has solidified our reputation as a trusted leader in the field of architectural engineering.
