Restaurant & retail remodels

Counters, kitchens, bars and new openings, with equipment loads accounted for.

Rooftop equipment

HVAC and mechanical unit supports, with roof framing checked for the new loads.

Mezzanines & platforms

Storage mezzanines, equipment platforms and racking designed to code.

Openings & steel beams

Lintels, beams and new openings cut into existing load-bearing walls.

Industrial & warehouse

Building alterations, equipment foundations and structural upgrades.
