Are you just starting to plan out your dream design but you have no clue about what the structural implications might be?
We'll conduct a visual assessment of your site based on the proposed scope of work. Utilizing a 3D model to aid with conceptualization, we'll make recommendations for necessary retrofits and highlight any areas of concern or potential issues. We will provide you with a feasibility report outlining the findings of our visual assessment for you and any potential consultants to be able to reference as you are planning your project.

Do you already have architectural floorplans prepared?
We'll create a full structural drawing set based on the floorplans, along with a supporting structural calculation package for you to submit to the city for building permit approval.
Each drawing set comes with structural framing and foundation plans, as well as comprehensive construction details that are easy to read and up to current California building codes.

We know things can change during construction and we’re here to help. We are dedicated to your satisfaction with the end product, and if you decide you want to make a few changes, no problem. We’ll work with the contractor to make it happen.
We'll also periodically observe and review the progress of construction to verify everything is being built per the approved building permit drawings. This is separate and independent of a third party special inspection required by the city.
We’ll provide you with a final structural observation letter and you’ll be one step closer to receiving your certificate of occupancy from the city, (i.e. project complete!).
