Consulting Services

By approaching every design in a unique way, we consider every possible alternative that will be adjusted within your budget. Understanding your concept is our primary goal for providing the best possible quality service

STRUCTURAL DESIGN AND DRAFTING

From initial design through final deliverables, we provide complete construction document packages supported by current and innovative structural calculations that meet the permitting requirements of the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Our drawings are developed using Autodesk AutoCAD and Revit, which are fully compatible with industry-standard structural engineering software utilized for analysis, modeling, and detailing. As part of our quality assurance process and project support during the construction phase, we also offer Construction Administration Observation services upon request.

INSPECTIONS AND ON SITE INVESTIGATIONS

• Structural Investigations for Remodeling: We conduct on-site investigations to identify and document existing structural elements and conditions accurately. This process allows us to establish a precise baseline for redesign, enabling us to develop solutions that are structurally reliable, cost-effective, and practical to construct. We view this investigative phase as a critical component of successful remodeling outcomes.

• New Construction Inspections: Inspection services for new construction are also included within our scope of work. Additionally, we are certified to operate as Sarasota County Private Providers, enabling us to support projects with permit inspections and accelerated review processes.

SPECIALTY ENGINEERING DESIGN

We offer a broad range of specialty and on-demand structural engineering services, including:

• 3D Structural Analysis and Design: Structural design and analysis of concrete, steel, wood, and masonry systems utilizing software such as ETABS, RISA-3D, RISA-Floor, RISA-Foundation, and Mathcad. Our capabilities include elevated reinforced concrete slab design, with post-tensioned slab systems available upon request.

• Aluminum and Steel Component Design: Engineering design for aluminum and steel elements such as sunshades, guardrails, stair systems, canopies, platforms, and roof-covered structures, among other custom applications. • Wood Truss and Cold-Formed Steel Design: Re-design and optimization of wood truss systems and cold-formed steel framing configurations to enhance performance, reduce material cost, and improve constructability.
