I provide professional engineering consultation and design services including Analysis and Design of Gravity Load and Lateral Force Resisting Systems for commercial, manufacturing, institutional, and custom residential structures. I specialize in timber engineering, including glued-laminated timbers (glulam), traditional timber frame design, and also sawn lumber.  Services include limited structural engineering for individual structural members or systems, or the entire structural package, including foundations. I also do structural inspections and demolition/shoring engineering.  I provide retaining wall designs - whether basement retaining walls for structures above, or `outside' segmental block retaining walls (gravity or reinforced backfill).  I also participate heavily in the the structural engineering and wood products fields as a whole, both in the manufacturing and code and design manual writing arenas. I have served as an expert witness on a number of court cases (structural and hydrology related), and am indeed an expert. I teach structural engineering to engineering and architecture and construction management students at the local universities, and run a number of structures-related and other blogs.  It's fun.  Please feel free to call on me to design, consult, teach, write, inspect, or just talk engineering.

ENGINEERING



  • Demolition Engineering / Shoring

 (No, I don't blow up buildings; that would be fun ... but I show you what you need to do to keep it standing while you take it apart and rebuilt it!)

(Pictured is the Univ. of Idaho University Classroom Center being majorly remodeled into the new Teaching and Learning Center.)
