We provide a full range of traditional CS&A engineering expertise and a particular strength of the company is the field of structural and mechanical analyses. This includes extreme environmental and man made hazards including dropped loads, impact and blast hazards and earthquake engineering. We consider ourselves experts in all forms of seismic analysis, implementation of ASCE 4-98, soil structure interaction studies, and derivation of all required member forces and displacements for design purposes and generation of secondary response spectra. The company undertakes traditional response spectrum analysis as well as frequency and time domain analysis. We are proficient in both linear and non-linear analyses.
