STRUCTURAL MODIFICATIONS

We routinely assist owners and architects to provide structural design services for renovations and tenant improvements in existing buildings — everything from rooftop decks and fitness centers to monumental stairs and lobby overhauls. We work closely with project stakeholders and contractors to make sure the design vision is supported structurally without unnecessary complications. We excel at thinking ahead, but know navigating unknown conditions and coordinating with other disciplines in real time is a critical part of every job. Our experience with these fast-paced, high-visibility projects means we know how to perform our tasks to keep projects moving. We’re easy to reach, responsive to changes, and always available to assist. 

• Design of new monumental stairs in commercial and residential buildings

• Infill of existing stair openings and other framing alterations

• Supplemental framing for tenant improvements such as operable partitions

• Capital improvements such as tenant amenity spaces, lobby renovations, and green roofs

• Seismic retrofits and other strengthening to lateral force resisting systems
