Structural Assessment & Schematic Design

Griggs Engineering Graphic_Homepage_Hex.

We often see the value in having a structural consult early in a project.

Using our services early in the architect's schematic design or having a

structural assessment performed early allows us to evaluate proposed

architectural features or existing conditions and provide the team with a understanding of the impacts of early choices or pre-existing conditions. Having a discussion with the architect early in the conception of a design, we are able to give them insight on how we may go about framing a solution or have a discussion about the limitations of the site and help steer the architect away from overly difficult or expensive design choices. When you pair this with our code knowledge, you get a project that can be produced faster and more affordably by limiting both permitting and contractor bid set redesigns.
