Services
Civil Engineering
Our civil engineering services address subdivision design, stormwater management, and site development for industrial and retail projects. We specialize in environmentally sensitive coastal planning that meets regulatory requirements while optimizing land use. Our team provides complete permitting assistance and coordinates between owners, engineers, and contractors throughout Florida's Treasure Coast region.
Structural Engineering
We deliver durable structural solutions for Florida's coastal climate, handling residential, commercial, and multi-story condominium projects. Our expertise includes concrete restoration, waterproofing, and aluminum structural design. We perform threshold inspections and create designs that withstand high wind velocities while maintaining compliance with Florida building codes for both modern and historic structures.
Marine Engineering
Our marine engineering division designs and inspects docks, seawalls, and marinas across Florida. With experience in 300+ marine structures, we manage permitting through agencies like the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Services include shoreline stabilization, dredging assessments, and bathymetric surveys to ensure long-term structural integrity in coastal environments.
Milestone Inspections
We conduct mandatory milestone inspections for Florida condominiums over three stories, complying with SB 4-D requirements. Our two-phase inspections identify structural deterioration and provide repair recommendations. We assist with scheduling, documentation submission to building departments, and emergency repair coordination to meet Florida's 2024 compliance deadlines for buildings reaching 30 years of age.
Reserve Studies
Our Structural Integrity Reserve Studies (SIRS) help condominium associations meet Florida's new funding requirements. We analyze structural components requiring reserves, develop funding strategies to avoid special assessments, and ensure compliance with straightline reserve accounting changes mandated by SB 4-D for high-rise buildings across the Treasure Coast region.
