Building Design

ABS Consulting provides structural engineering services, including plans, specifications and construction administration for new, renovation of existing structures, strengthening of structures and structural risk analyses.

It has always been ABS Consulting's practice to develop efficient designs with proven technology, complemented by state-of-the-art analyses. Our staff includes specialists in engineering for extreme hazards including earthquake, extreme wind (i.e. tornado), flood, hurricane and blast. Engineers utilize state-of-the-art computer applications, as required, for static and dynamic analyses and soil-structure interaction. Our design team includes experienced drafting and graphics departments with the latest design and construction document production capabilities.

Through first-hand investigation of thousands of structural failures in earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, blasts and other events around the world, and direct participation in the formulation of the building codes and design standards, our engineers develop unique, cost-effective and practical performance-based solutions for new design and renovations to meet client-specific requirements.

We have completed a wide variety of design projects, ranging in scale from structural concept and schematic studies, to full design and construction projects of upwards to $160 million in constructed value. Our engineers have consulted on a wide variety of new buildings, facilities and other structures, along with renovations, repairs and retrofit designs for all types of facilities. ABS Consulting also provides services for clients worldwide involving risk reduction planning from natural catastrophe and manmade events.
