We Make FRP Structures Possible
Axcess Infrastructure is a structural engineering practice founded in 2020 to advance Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) as a mainstream civil infrastructure material. Drawing on deep manufacturing and design backgrounds, it partners with owners, fabricators, and engineering organizations across North America to deliver professional design, consulting, inspection, and Engineer of Record review for large-scale FRP structures - spanning bridges, rail platforms, hydraulic systems, and marine fender systems. Clients include state DOTs and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
