Structural Engineering
Value
Structural engineers and designers provide both technical expertise
and a commitment to cost-effective, creative structural design.
Services
IDC's structural engineering group performs feasibility studies,
detailed design, estimates of probable construction costs, services
during construction, and other services for both new and retrofit
facilities. Working with other design and engineering disciplines,
we establish design parameters for loading, deflection, operational,
and spatial requirements to minimize conflicts for fast-track and
conventional projects.
Expertise
|
•
|
Building materials (cast-in-place, precast/prestressed concrete, structural
steel, open web steel joist, composite construction, masonry, fiber-reinforced
plastic structural systems).
|
|
•
|
Structural systems (vibration isolation and control are designed into fabrication
and support areas).
|
|
•
|
Foundation systems (pile, drilled pier, mat, and isolated spread).
|
|
•
|
Seismic analysis and design (including code requirements for seismic restraint
of non-structural components).
|
|
•
|
Compliance with codes and standards (both U.S. and international).
|
|
•
|
Alternative building structural systems to determine the most economical foundations,
materials, and span lengths that meet the requirements of a project.
