Services
Structural Engineering
We provide comprehensive structural engineering solutions from conceptual design to construction completion. Our expertise covers multiple materials including steel, concrete, masonry, wood, and aluminum. We ensure safety, durability, and code compliance for new builds, retrofits, and specialty structures while optimizing designs for performance, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability.
Special Inspection
Our special inspection services verify structural components meet safety and quality standards. We conduct on-site evaluations to ensure construction aligns with approved plans and building codes. Our expertise covers welding, bolting, concrete, masonry, and other critical elements, identifying potential issues before they become costly problems through proactive quality control.
Aluminum Structures
We specialize in aluminum structure engineering that balances lightweight efficiency with structural integrity. Our designs address welded aluminum's reduced stress capacity while withstanding extreme loads from hurricanes, snow, and seismic events. We create custom canopies, enclosures, and architectural elements that combine innovation with functional durability for long-term performance.
Forensic Engineering
Our forensic engineering services investigate structural failures and distress symptoms to determine root causes. We analyze design flaws, material deficiencies, construction errors, and environmental factors to develop effective repair strategies. Our solutions restore structural integrity, extend service life, and implement preventive measures for both minor repairs and major rehabilitation projects.
Threshold Inspection
We provide specialized threshold inspection services ensuring critical structural components meet safety and compliance standards. Our engineers conduct detailed evaluations of welding, bolting, concrete, and masonry work during construction phases. This proactive approach prevents costly rework while maintaining code compliance through meticulous quality assurance and documentation.
