We are an award-winning group of structural engineers and master builders working globally to create beautiful and efficient structures. Since our start in 1998, we have developed a practical and technology-forward approach to the structural design of all materials, including steel, concrete, and glass - but particularly of timber, where the structure is exposed as architecture. Visual quality aligned with budget and material efficiency are key considerations as we strive to create excellence in the built environment.

From Abbotsford (CAN), Vancouver (CAN), Seattle (USA) and Trento (Italy), our diverse team of 150+ includes professional engineers, digital designers, and project managers in the office, and a skilled crew of craftsmen in the shop and on site. With over 26 years of experience, we have acted as the structural engineer and builder for over 10 million sqft of structures, including many of North America's most significant mass timber projects.
