Structural integrity is vital to any building. Achieving this integrity through excellence in design, while allowing for the constraints of time and budget, is our constant goal. Our practical knowledge of the techniques and demands of the construction industry, coupled with state-of-the-art software, allows us to anticipate and avoid costly, time-consuming problems and delays. In keeping with our commitment to full service, we provide complete generation of construction documents as well as guidance and coordination through the review process. Our designs encompass the entire structure--foundation to exterior envelope--or individual building components. We are experienced in providing thoughtful consideration of everything from seismic to aesthetic criteria while designing to our client's needs and maintaining uncompromising standards. Our areas of special expertise are medical facilities, office buildings, industrial facilities, and seismic review. Each of these types of facilities is unique in its demands on the structure. In addition, seismic review of existing buildings requires familiarity with both new and old construction techniques. Knowledge of historical building techniques helps us to better apply our engineering skills and software technology, resulting in a safer, stronger, and more cost-efficient structure.
