Specialty Engineering
Bridging the gap between what is shown on the Contract Documents and the design needs of the General Contractor

Our Engineering Staff is not only capable of provide Structural Engineering Services as the Engineer of Record, but also provides Specialty Structural Engineering services (SSE) for a wide array of standalone miscellaneous metals and delegated design items.

With the constant pressures on construction costs, schedules, and engineering fees, Structural Engineers of Record (SEOR) are required to do more with less and look for ways to shed design scope. So more and more design responsibility is being shifted to the contractor/fabricator and the SEORs frequently delegate more design items than ever before. This includes structural steel connections and secondary elements such as steel stairs, guardrails, elevator rails, cold-formed metal framing, etc..

KEA Structural Engineers work with Engineer of Records, Steel Fabricators & Erectors, Metal Studs framing sub-contractors to provide high quality steel connection design, steel stairs, handrails, mechanical platforms and metal studs shop drawings.
