Pipe Support Engineering
Our pipe support engineering specializes in designing seismic-compliant support systems for industrial piping. We analyze thermal stress impacts and fluid dynamics to create durable solutions for water treatment plants and energy infrastructure. Using ASME B31.3 and B31.1 standards, we ensure safety and efficiency in complex piping applications.
Seismic Retrofitting
We provide specialized seismic retrofitting for vulnerable structures including soft-story buildings and non-ductile concrete constructions. Our engineers develop code-compliant reinforcement solutions that enhance structural integrity while minimizing disruption to existing operations and maintaining cost-effectiveness for property owners.
Modular Design
Our modular design services cover both permanent and temporary construction solutions. We analyze structural requirements for prefabricated modules and develop foundation systems that ensure stability and code compliance for rapidly deployable building solutions.
Residential Engineering
We support residential construction with specialized engineering for accessory dwelling units, wall demolitions, and solar permit packages. Our team provides code-compliant solutions that balance homeowner needs with structural safety requirements for remodeling projects.
Shoring Design
Our shoring design services ensure worker safety during deep excavation projects. We develop customized protective systems using soldier pile, hydraulic shoring, and other methods to prevent trench collapses while maintaining project timelines and budget constraints.
