Services
Structural Engineering
We provide comprehensive structural engineering for new and existing buildings, specializing in seismic resilience. Our services include code-compliant design, forensic assessments, and retrofit solutions for wood, steel, and concrete structures. Clients benefit from advanced analysis tools and BIM integration for efficient, durable projects.
Equipment Certification
Our team certifies non-structural components for seismic and wind compliance through shake table testing and finite element analysis. We ensure equipment meets OSHPD, IBC, and IEEE standards for mission-critical facilities. This service enhances product marketability while guaranteeing performance in high-risk environments.
Construction Engineering
We offer on-site construction engineering for temporary structures, shoring, and deferred submittals. Our support includes fall protection design and structural QC services to maintain project timelines and budgets. Contractors receive practical solutions for complex means-and-methods challenges.
Forensic Engineering
Our forensic services investigate structural failures and provide expert testimony for insurance and legal cases. We conduct condition assessments and develop repair strategies using advanced diagnostic tools. Clients gain actionable insights to prevent future failures and meet regulatory requirements.
Seismic Retrofits
We specialize in seismic retrofit solutions for existing structures, including nonlinear analysis and base isolation systems. Our engineers design cost-effective upgrades to meet modern codes while preserving structural integrity. Services cover residential, commercial, and historic buildings in high-risk seismic zones.
