Engineering Solutions for Construction Challenges
From Site-Specific Safety Plans to Forensic Analysis, We’ve Got You Covered
Site Specific OSHA Compliant Trench Safety Plan
Site-specific trench safety plans are designed to support utility installation and excavation projects, ensuring OSHA compliance and contractor safety. Each plan is prepared by a registered professional engineer and provides clear guidance on temporary shoring options, allowing contractors to apply manufacturer’s tabulated data directly in the field. With expert engineering support, contractors can confidently maintain safe and compliant worksites while optimizing efficiency.
Temporary Special Shoring
Custom temporary shoring designs are tailored to give contractors the flexibility to source their own materials and installers, maximizing cost efficiency. With a focus on value engineering, each design is developed to provide the most practical and affordable shoring solution for the project’s unique needs. As an independent design firm, there are no product sales, ensuring complete transparency and significant cost savings for contractors. Expertise spans a wide range of systems, including Beam and Plate, Beam and Timber, Sheet Pile, Ring-Beam Tunnel Shafts, Liner Plate Systems, Soil Nail Walls, Tie-Back Anchors, and more. Every design is driven by experience, innovation, and adaptability to meet the demands of each project.
Utility Structural Engineering
Serving the water and wastewater sector, our structural engineering expertise covers a wide range of building materials such as concrete, steel, masonry, pre-engineered metal buildings, and both shallow and deep foundations. Our project experience includes designing pump stations, lift stations, junction boxes, vaults, administrative buildings, concrete basins, storage tanks, and more. With a strong background in water-retaining structures, our team offers specialized insight from an associate member of the ACI 350 board, ensuring durable and cost-effective solutions tailored to your project’s needs.
Pipe Jacking/Pipe Boring
Designs and analysis for pipe jacking and auger boring construction are tailored to support contractors during trenchless installations. Structural analysis of steel casing and thrust forces offers clear guidance for safe and efficient installation without open-cut methods. Comprehensive design services cover thrust blocking, cribbing, jacking frames, liner plates, and other critical components needed to facilitate a successful installation.
Bridge Jacking
Specialized bridge jacking expertise ensures safe and efficient bridge lifting during maintenance tasks such as bearing pad replacement, bent cap repairs, and concrete restoration. Custom-designed jack beams, jacking frames, and tailored shoring solutions are developed to meet the specific needs of each project. By utilizing advanced finite element analysis, potential structural impacts are minimized, allowing for smooth and controlled lifting operations.
Building Design
Building structure design services encompass structural steel, reinforced concrete, and post-tensioned concrete solutions tailored to meet the demands of various industries. Expertise spans a wide range of project types, including healthcare facilities, mission-critical infrastructure, sports complexes, warehouses, religious buildings, retail spaces, and more. Structural designs are developed to optimize strength, efficiency, and constructability while accommodating the unique architectural and operational requirements of each project. Whether designing complex framing systems, foundation solutions, or long-span structures, the focus remains on delivering safe, durable, and cost-effective solutions that align with the client’s vision and project goals.
