DESIGN

FOUNDATION & STRUCTURAL

Spread Footings & Drilled Piers

As with the soil test, our foundation designs are based upon site specific information on and calculations.  That can provide significant savings on your project while making sure that all designs are consistent with the latest industry standards and codes, ensuring the safety of your building.  We understand the properties of the diverse soils in the Front Range area and can provide appropriate footing or drilled pier design.  We know that the interface between the soil and the foundation is often the most critical part of any construction project.

Framing

As with all our design, we are concerned about your construction costs as well as making sure that your structure is safe and sound.  Because of our commitment to build the best structure possible while minimizing costs, we perform calculations for each structural member, knowing the difference when specific members are most effective, and when repetition is a more effective solution.  We can do hand calculations for smaller projects, or use the latest version of STAAD for bigger projects.  That means that we’ll bring your project in on time as well, no matter what the size.

Retaining Walls

In conjunction with slope stability, we can design retaining walls to ensure that the soil stays where it needs to be.  This allows you to take an inaccessible site and make it safe for your construction for years to come.

Underpinning

A structure may have problems due to inadequate soil support or an unexpected change in the soil water content.  Underpinning a foundation will allow this type of structure to remain safe and functional for a fraction of the cost of  moving or rebuilding the structure.  We’ll look for the most economical method of stabilizing your structure.

PAVEMENT

Pavement Design                                                                                                                 We will use the required local codes or AASHTO standards to provide effective and efficient pavement design in conjunction with the substrata on which the pavement is placed, whether you need a parking lot, a driveway, or service access.
