Condition assessments, structural inspections, load-capacity evaluations, documentation of observed conditions, and repair or strengthening recommendations.
Owners, buyers, and design teams often need a clear-eyed answer about an existing structure: what is it, what shape is it in, and what can it carry? We evaluate existing buildings and structures through document review, field observation, and analysis — and we document what the conclusions are based on, so everyone understands the level of investigation behind them.
The scope is defined together before we start, but a typical evaluation includes review of available documents, visual observation of accessible structure, and a written report. Analysis, testing, or exploratory openings can be added when the question requires them.
We report on the conditions we observed and the analysis we performed, with conclusions limited to the agreed level of investigation. Blanket certifications aren't something a responsible engineer can give — but a well-scoped evaluation usually answers the real question behind the request.
Yes. Without drawings we rely more on field measurement, observation, and conservative assumptions about concealed conditions — and in some cases limited exploratory openings or testing. The report documents exactly what the conclusions rest on.
The scope and conclusions of an existing-structure evaluation depend on the information available, the site access provided, the conditions observed, and the level of investigation agreed for the engagement.
