Engineering That Supports Your Project
Our goal is to deliver efficient structural solutions that simplify construction while maintaining the highest safety standards for your ADU / JADU project.:
ADU / JADU
We provide the following structural engineering services for ADU and JADU projects:
Structural calculations
Our engineers perform detailed structural calculations to ensure your ADU or JADU meets all safety and building code requirements. These calculations verify that the structure can safely support loads such as gravity, wind, and seismic forces.
Full structural permit plan sets
We prepare complete structural drawing packages required for city permits. These plans include all structural details needed by reviewers, contractors, and inspectors to build your ADU or JADU safely and efficiently.
Foundation design
We design foundations that provide a stable and durable base for your ADU or JADU. Our designs take into account soil conditions, structural loads, and site-specific requirements to ensure long-term stability.
Wood framing design
Our team develops efficient wood framing systems for walls, floors, and roofs. Beams, joists, and structural connections are carefully designed to create a strong, buildable structure for your ADU or JADU.
Seismic engineering compliant with California building codes
California requires structures to resist earthquake forces. Our seismic engineering ensures that your ADU or JADU is designed according to the latest California Building Code requirements for safety and resilience.
Coordination with architects and contractors
We work closely with architects and contractors throughout the design and construction process. This coordination ensures the structural system integrates seamlessly with your ADU or JADU design and construction methods.
