Analyze - The desired modifications are incorporated into the design
Our three step investigative approach, Investigate, Analyze, and Solve, is instrumental in successfully diagnosing and retrofitting existing structures.
Investigate - The structure is researched and information is gathered to assess the existing condition of the structure.
Analyze - The desired modifications are incorporated into the design of the existing structure and evaluated for strength, serviceability, and compliance to current building codes.
Solve - Once the system has been analyzed, the most practical retrofit solution is selected. The final structural solution is based on constructability issues, time restraints, and construction costs.
