Capabilities

Structural Engineering

Service website

Provides structural design solutions for both entire buildings and specific components based on project requirements. Services cover complete construction documentation, including foundation layouts, framing plans, and detailed notes, along with specialized windload analysis for residential structures.

  • Commercial building engineering

    Delivers complete construction documents including foundation plans, structural framing layouts, notes, and details required by building departments.

  • Residential windload and foundation design

    Provides targeted structural solutions for residential projects, primarily focusing on windload analysis and foundation designs.

  • Coastal building engineering

    Specializes in engineering structures built in harsh coastal environments, utilizing deep foundation systems supporting wood, concrete, or steel components in high-wind zones.

  • High-wind structural systems

    Engineers framing and structural systems capable of withstanding extreme wind loads, from wood-frame houses to multi-story condominiums.

Civil Engineering

Service website

Delivers civil, site, and environmental design solutions that coordinate closely with primary structural projects to ensure seamless infrastructure development.

  • Site and infrastructure design

    Develops layouts and designs for site preparation, grading, utility connections, and essential infrastructure elements.

  • Stormwater systems design

    Designs drainage, retention, and management systems to handle stormwater runoff in compliance with local regulations.

  • Environmental permitting assistance

    Navigates and secures necessary environmental approvals and permits from regulatory authorities for development projects.

  • Governmental agency coordination

    Manages communication and approvals with local, state, and federal agencies to ensure regulatory compliance.

  • Construction phase administration

    Provides oversight and administration during the construction phase to ensure alignment with design specifications.

Specialty Engineering

Service website

Provides component-specific structural designs and contractor support, typically developing detailed plans for secondary components or attachments to existing buildings.

  • Precast concrete element design

    Engineers specific precast concrete components including beams, piles, wall panels, hollowcore slabs, and architectural elements.

  • Light gage steel framing design

    Designs light gage, cold-formed steel trusses and wall framing systems to meet structural requirements.

  • Metal roofing shop drawings

    Produces detailed structural drawings and connection details for metal roofing systems.

    Engineers solutions for structural roof retrofits and modifications on existing buildings.

  • Pre-engineered metal building foundations

    Designs specialized concrete foundation systems tailored to support pre-engineered metal buildings.

  • Retaining wall structural design

    Engineers structural retaining walls of various heights and material configurations to secure soil and grade changes.

  • Solar panel connection system design

    Designs secure structural connections and mounting attachments to integrate solar panel systems with existing building structures.

Inspection Services

Service website

Deploys qualified inspectors and engineers to evaluate structural safety, monitor ongoing construction, and assess damage from environmental or structural events.

  • Florida threshold inspection

    Performs mandated special inspections for large-scale buildings, such as structures with four or more stories or assembly spaces exceeding 500-person occupancy, as required by Florida Statutes.

  • New construction structural inspection

    Conducts structural inspections during active construction to verify compliance with design plans, often accommodating fast-paced schedules.

  • Remedial and repair assessments

    Evaluates existing buildings where structural issues have become evident, determining the scope of required repairs or structural interventions.

  • Post-disaster structural assessment

    Inspects structures to evaluate structural integrity and safety following events such as storm, fire, termite, or wood rot damage.

  • Foundation settlement evaluation

    Investigates signs of foundation movement, soil settlement, and structural shifting to recommend corrective action.

  • Renovation and alteration inspection

    Assesses structural viability and details during renovation or building modification projects.

LEED Consulting

Service website

Guides projects through green building design, sustainable material selection, and structural options to optimize efficiency and minimize environmental impact.

  • Green building design consulting

    Collaborates with design professionals during the planning phase to select efficient products and sustainable methods of construction.
