Construction

Enabling creation of safe, efficient structures with expert design and analysis, risk management, and post-incident recovery services

We partner with clients in the construction industry to ensure their structures are safe, compliant, reliable, and built to perform at the highest level. Whether conducting comprehensive structural and safety evaluations, designing repairs, or supporting new construction, our experts apply rigorous analysis, industry best practices, and efficient oversight to deliver high-quality outcomes. 

Our multidisciplinary team brings technical expertise in civil and structural engineering and proven experience in construction management. We identify and solve issues involving foundations, structural framing, building envelopes, and MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing) systems. By diagnosing problems early, we prevent costly delays and ensure that every aspect of a construction project meets the highest standards of safety, quality, and compliance. 

Beyond construction planning and project management, we provide post-incident recovery services to help clients safely restore operations after catastrophic events, natural disasters, or structural failures. Leveraging advanced tools—such as FARO 3D laser scanning, drone imaging, and digital modeling—we accurately assess damage, develop targeted repair strategies, and guide projects through safe restoration. 

From initial planning through recovery and long-term maintenance, we collaborate with property owners, developers, and insurers to deliver reliable structures. Our experts offer actionable insights to help clients minimize risks, prevent claims, and avoid failures throughout the construction lifecycle.
