Load Analysis and Optimization services in Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey, and throughout the Lower Mainland, BC. Professional structural engineering solutions.
Maximizing efficiency in material usage while maintaining strength and integrity through rigorous structural analysis services.
We run comparative studies that capture lifecycle costs, constructability, and maintenance implications.
Load analysis and optimization services support industrial facilities, commercial buildings, and specialized structures throughout Vancouver, the Lower Mainland, and BC. We analyze complex structural systems, equipment supports, and specialized applications where detailed analysis is needed to optimize design or verify performance. Our services help owners reduce material costs while ensuring adequate structural performance.
We support projects requiring finite element analysis for complex geometries, value engineering studies to reduce costs, and performance verification for specialized applications. Our analysis services serve manufacturing facilities, power plants, commercial buildings, and institutional projects where structural optimization can provide significant cost savings.
We begin by understanding load requirements, performance criteria, and optimization goals. We develop finite element models for complex structures to verify performance and identify optimization opportunities. Our analyses provide design guidance; fabrication and installation are executed by contractors.
We conduct value engineering workshops to evaluate design alternatives and identify cost-saving opportunities. We perform comparative studies that consider material costs, constructability, and lifecycle implications. We document deflection, vibration, and fatigue performance to ensure systems meet operational requirements.
Our load analysis and optimization comply with applicable structural engineering codes and standards including CSA S16, CSA S136, and BC Building Code requirements. We ensure all optimized designs meet code requirements and provide adequate structural performance. Our analysis accounts for all relevant load combinations and environmental factors.
