Commercial Structural Engineering

ConstructCo provides commercial structural engineering services for regulated commercial properties across California, focused on load behavior, structural capacity, and failure risk.

In structural engineering, we compare demand against capacity, verify load transfer continuity, and design corrections that keep structures stable and code compliant. Our calculations follow the governing building code, including the International Building Code and recognized load standards such as ASCE 7 where they apply. We account for seismic loads as each jurisdiction requires.

Structural Analysis & Performance Evaluation

We assess how forces move through a structural system and how each component responds under load.

• Dead, live, and lateral load calculations
• Load path continuity verification
• Connection and anchorage performance analysis
• Foundation capacity assessment
• Deflection and serviceability evaluation
• Demand versus capacity review
• Existing condition structural assessment

The analysis determines structural adequacy, flags overstress or instability, and supports jurisdictional approval.

Structural Deterioration & Corrective Design

We prepare engineering documentation to address capacity loss and material degradation.

• Concrete crack and spall repair detailing
• Reinforcement corrosion evaluation and mitigation
• Exterior Elevated Element structural correction
• Balcony and deck framing stabilization
• Connection reinforcement and load redistribution design
• Anchorage correction documentation

Corrective design restores load-bearing integrity and reduces the risk of structural failure.

Structural Modification & Capacity Reassessment

Engineering support when you alter a structure or change its load demand.

• Opening creation and infill structural design
• Beam, column, and slab modification detailing
• Framing reinforcement documentation
• Load capacity reassessment
• Structural retrofit coordination

Our documentation keeps the structure stable and code compliant through each modification.

Code & Regulatory Structural Documentation

Our structural engineering follows the governing building codes and statutory mandates.

• Permit calculation packages
• Structural code compliance verification
• Inspection deficiency response documentation
• SB 326 structural repair documentation in California
• SB 721 structural remediation documentation

This documentation supports regulatory review and an orderly project closeout.

Technical Controls & Analytical Integrity

We check our structural analysis and control our documentation through defined procedures.

• Scope definition and calculation verification
• Internal technical review
• Permit coordination
• Inspection documentation tracking
• Revision control management

These controls strengthen structural reliability and compliance integrity to the standard institutional procurement calls for.

How Engineering Services Are Delivered

ConstructCo delivers engineering services as part of an integrated project-delivery model, not as a standalone professional service. One accountable team coordinates engineering, design development, permitting, construction and closeout. Any work that requires a licensed professional engineer is done by appropriately licensed professionals we engage for the project.

This is the difference that matters on a live building: the person who identified the condition, the person who documented the fix and the people who build it are working to the same record, so nothing is lost between disciplines.
