NEW STRUCTURES AND BUILDINGS

We are frequently retained to design new structures and buildings or to evaluate the structural adequacy of a proposed structural retrofit, addition or components to the existing structures. Our design philosophy is based on reliable technology and practical field experience, we distinguish between useful advances and short-lived innovations, and develop new designs that are practical and efficient. Our knowledge of material performance, structural behavior, and construction techniques, in combination with our extensive experience in rehabilitation, allows us to design new structures that are watertight, structurally adequate, durable, efficient, and maintenance free. By producing detailed, thorough, and clear drawings and specifications, we enable contractors to estimate with a sharper pencil, thereby helping you avoid delays, reduce costs, prevent disputes, and build a better and long-lasting structure.
