Retaining Wall and Deck Design

For this project we designed a new retaining wall to replace an existing failed retaining wall. The house and deck has an overlooking view of the St. Lawrence River near Brockville, ON. Part of the design was to ensure the structure was aesthetically pleasing to compliment the views and atmosphere.

Structural Home Inspections

If you suspect something is wrong with your house then it’s time to have an engineer do an inspection. Our engineer is skilled in common residential building design and construction. Some common areas of concern are cracked concrete basement floors and cracked concrete foundation walls.

New Construction, Additions and Renovations

When you are building a new house or it’s time for an addition and renovation then have an engineer assist you with the design and planning. You will require a building permit for your local government which will require drawings of your designs submitted. Don’t risk having your application denied, have an engineer assist you.

Ontario Building Code Design and Review

Structures are required to be designed under the Ontario Building Code. Harness the experience of an engineer to assist you with your design under the Building Code.

Retaining Walls

Retaining walls over 1 meter or 3 feet high have to be designed by an engineer. These extremely important structures are designed to stringent safety requirements. If you require a new retaining wall or have to repair an existing one, make sure to have the design approved by a professional engineer.

Drafting and 3D Modelling

Ensure you have the design you are looking for by using the latest in 3-dimensional modelling techniques. This will eliminate all of the guess work that comes with reading traditional plans. If you have a big project coming up, ask about our drafting services.
