New projects
Foundations, columns, beams, slabs and shear walls designed as one load path — detailed for the field and issued permit-ready.
- Applies to
- New construction
- Coverage
- Miami-Dade & Broward County, Florida
When you need it
Concrete has to be right on paper first.
Concrete is unforgiving: reinforcement that cannot be placed, a transfer condition resolved late, or a slab thickness set before the loads are known all become field problems that cost far more than they saved.
- 01You are building a house, townhouses, a mid-rise or a commercial frame and need the structural set for permit.
- 02An architect has a design and needs the structure engineered behind it.
- 03A contractor needs buildable reinforcement details, not a schematic.

Scope & deliverables
What's included
- Gravity system — slabs, beams, girders, columns
- Lateral system — shear walls, frames, diaphragms
- Foundations — spread footings, mats, grade beams, pile caps
- Transfer conditions, openings and irregular framing
- Reinforcement design, development and splice detailing
- Construction-phase RFIs and submittal review
What you receive
- Structural drawing set, permit-ready
- Structural calculations package
- General notes and typical details
- Signed and sealed documents where the scope requires it
Next step
Send the architectural drawings (any stage) and the site location. You receive a proposal with scope, deliverables and fee.
How the work runs
Load take-down
Occupancy, dead, live and hurricane-wind loads established for the actual site before any member is sized.
System selection
Framing layout, slab type and lateral strategy chosen with the architect — span, depth and cost tested together.
Analysis & sizing
Members analyzed and designed to the Florida Building Code, with deflection and serviceability checked.
Detailing
Reinforcement drawn so it can actually be placed — congestion, cover, hooks and splices resolved on the drawing.
Check & seal
Drawings checked line by line against the calculations, then signed and sealed for permit submittal.
Good to know
What changes the scope — and what no engineer can promise.
- Foundation design depends on a geotechnical report; where none exists we will tell you what is needed before we start.
- Scope and fee change with irregularity — transfers, cantilevers, post-tensioning and unusual geometry are priced honestly, not absorbed silently.
- Permit review comments are part of the process; we respond to them, but no engineer can guarantee a jurisdiction’s decision.
Next step
A county notice in your hand, a building that worries you or a new project — describe it and attach what you have. A phone photo of the letter is enough. You hear back from the engineer, with questions or with a written proposal.
