Project Snapshot
Project type: Industrial factory store facility
Location: United States
Client type: Contractor
Structural system: Steel portal / frame system
Software: Tekla TSD, Ideastatica, Navisworks, SAP2000
Scope of work: Structural steel design, Connection design, Engineering calculations and documentation
The Challenge
- The project was required to comply with multiple US codes and standards, including structural and building regulations.
- Approval processes demanded strict adherence to code requirements and detailing conventions.
- Any non-compliance could result in design resubmissions and program delays.
- The contractor needed a fully compliant design package ready for construction approval.
Our Engineering Approach
- We developed a code-compliant portal/frame structural system aligned with the project’s functional and spatial needs.
- Structural analysis and connection design were carried out to meet AISC, ACI, and IBC requirements.
- Particular attention was given to load combinations, member checks, and connection behavior.
- Design outputs were structured to support a smooth approval process and early construction start.
- Close coordination with the contractor ensured alignment with construction methodology.
Tools and Deliverables
- Complete structural design package, including calculations and drawings.
- Connection design documentation suitable for fabrication.
- Approval-ready design submissions aligned with US regulatory requirements.
Results & Value Delivered
