Engineered Foundation designs:

The keystone of the building process is the foundation.   A well designed foundation by a structural engineer provides both the builder and the owner a prudent investment in the project.  Working as a team with the builder, architect and contractors, the structural engineer can provide a designed foundation and inspect the site prior to concrete pour to ensure product serviceability and a sound, efficient and economical structure.
