Services
Structural Design & Drafting
Our structural design and drafting services cover projects of all scales, from small one-story additions to multi-story buildings exceeding 200,000 square feet. We collaborate with architects, MEP engineers, owners, developers, and construction managers to deliver code-compliant, vision-aligned structural plans. All designs prioritize safety, functionality, and long-term performance for the buildings intended use.
Building Design & Evaluation
Our building design and evaluation services support new construction and existing structure assessments across all markets we serve. We evaluate structural integrity, code compliance, and feasibility for projects ranging from school renovations to new industrial facilities. Our evaluations provide clients with clear, actionable insights to inform project planning and decision-making.
Construction Inspection
Our construction inspection services ensure structural work adheres to approved design plans, building codes, and industry standards. We conduct on-site inspections at key project milestones to identify potential issues and verify work quality before proceeding. This proactive approach reduces rework, delays, and safety risks for clients and project teams.
Structural Repair & Restoration
Our structural repair and restoration services address damage, deterioration, and code non-compliance in existing buildings and complex structures. We develop customized repair plans that preserve historic elements where required while restoring full structural integrity and safety. Our work extends the lifespan of structures and helps clients avoid costly full replacements.
Forensic Engineering
Our forensic engineering services investigate structural failures, damage, and performance issues to determine root causes and liability. We provide detailed, court-admissible reports and expert testimony to support insurance claims, legal proceedings, and corrective action planning. Our findings help clients resolve disputes efficiently and prevent future structural issues.
