They have experience in structural experimental and analytical research in addition to structural engineering design, structural engineering project management, field structural engineering, and inspection. Our engineers are involved in numerous professional societies and have been active on numerous national committees through the years.

Buildings, Bridges, and Other Structures

Structures are any system that resists vertical or horizontal loads. Structures include large items such as skyscrapers, bridges, and dams, as well as small items such as bookshelves, chairs, and windows. Most everyday structures are designed by testing, or trial and error; while large, unique, or expensive structures that are not easily tested are generally designed by a qualified structural engineers using mathematical calculations.

Gravity Support and Lateral Force Resistance

Structures are subject to vertical, and/or “Gravity” loads and horizontal, or “Lateral” loads. Gravity loads include “dead”, or permanent load, which is the weight of the structure, including its walls, floors, finishes, and mechanical systems, and “live”, or temporary load, which is the weight of a structure’s contents and occupants, including the weight of snow. Lateral loads include those generated by the wind, earthquakes, or explosions. Structural elements must be designed so that, as a system, the structure can resist all loads that will act upon it.
