Residential, Commercial, and Industrial Structural Design Services

Did you know that your builder has three options to build a home? 

• They can follow the pre-engineered residential building code if the home fits the average models and environmental conditions it was written for.
• They can follow the manufacturer's installation instructions for any pre-engineered product.
• They can follow the building-specific directions provided by an engineer.

Notably, there is no option for a builder to simply rely on their own judgment for what they think is best or what they have done in the past on other buildings. As homes have become more elaborate, windows have become larger, and rooms have become more spacious, this leaves less and less of a skeleton to support your roof and floors against vertical and lateral loads. Fewer and fewer homes can be built following the prescriptive instructions of the building code. Thus, it is becoming increasingly common that a typical home construction requires direction from an engineer.

Given our experience investigating commonly observed poor construction practices, we know what to specify and how to detail to ensure your home is built from a proper plan.       

Dynamic Analysis has experience with wood, steel, and concrete construction. Our commercial building experience is specific to low- to mid-rise structures, with designations encompassing nearly every building in Montana and Wyoming. Our designs ensure the minimum building code standards are met without reliance on over-conservative or unnecessary design methods. This means our designs are focused on combining cost-effective solutions with safe applications.        

The engineers at Dynamic Analysis have a background in designing uranium processing plants, managing operations at refineries, and building municipal lift stations. These industrial projects form the core of our experience. Look no further if you need an engineered solution for your industrial project.
