Our Services
Structural Design: Vector Structural Engineering provides structural design services for a wide variety of buildings and structures. Our expertise includes: custom homes, commercial buildings, small and medium industrial structures, multifamily buildings, specialty structures (bridges, towers, enclosures, retaining walls, solar equipment, etc.), signs, and solar roof top retrofit analysis. Vector uses the latest technology and knowledge of code requirements to provide sensible designs. Typically Vector Structural Engineers provides stamped calculations and drawings and any other construction documents requested by the client. We have engineers licensed in every state and many of our clients provide services nationally or regionally.
Detailed Drawings: Our standard structural design includes comprehensive structural drawings and details. Our goal is to avoid creating a painful IQ test for the contractor and to solve construction challenges before construction begins.
Value Engineering: Typically, we provide an initial layout of each project to the client with value engineering suggestions. Our engineers communicate with clients regarding suggestions where minor revisions could result in significant construction cost savings.
Customer Service (Vector Answers The Phone): Vector Structural Engineers provides prompt responses to clients’ concerns and questions through the life of the project. We do not ‘nickel & dime’ our clients for services and minor changes during construction. We keep our clients informed and we respond quickly to phone calls, RFI’s, plan check comments, and submittals – maintaining a sense of urgency throughout your project. In addition, one of our experienced engineers will be available to meet with you in the office and on site.
Vector Structural Engineers is a service-driven company. We take project schedules very seriously during both the design and construction phases. Our experience, efficiency, and relative low overhead allow us to keep our fees very competitive. Our fees are often significantly below comparable engineering firms’ bids. The following are typically included in our initial design fee: truss review, mix design review, steel shop drawing review, shipping, plotting, and minor fix letters.
Proof of our superior customer service is found in the fact that almost all our work comes from repeat clients. Routinely builders and contractors demand that developers or architects use Vector Structural Engineers. Customer service is our number one priority.
