What is Special Projects?

Special project engineers are masters at time management, working on multiple projects at a time and respond well to projects with tight timelines.

Types of projects may include structural condition assessments, new ground up buildings, additions or upgrades to existing buildings, renovations and tenant improvements, designing structural support for mechanical upgrades, architectural improvements and sustainability upgrades.
