// Our Process

From field
to filing.

01

Site Survey

Field inspection with measured drawings, photo documentation, and material assessment. We learn the building before we draw a single line.

02

Analysis

Loads, framing, connections, and foundations are checked against NYC Building Code and current industry standards.

03

Documentation

Clear plans, sections, details, and reports are coordinated for construction and DOB review.

04

PE Seal & Submission

Every drawing and calculation package is reviewed, stamped, and sealed by a New York State licensed Professional Engineer before DOB submission.
