Careers in Buildings & Structures

The Buildings & Structures Practice is comprised of architects and engineers with specialized expertise in various aspects of structural engineering (such as dynamics, bridges, seismic, wind, vibrations, control, design, and advanced analysis) and building technology (such as materials, architecture, and components). Joining our team will allow you the opportunity to work with the principal investigators of the most challenging technical problems, including devastating infrastructure failures such as the collapse of the World Trade Center towers, the destruction of Hurricane Katrina, and buildings damaged by earthquake forces. Most of our consultants have advanced degrees in engineering or architecture, and all of our consultants develop extensive practical experience in the field by inspecting and analyzing poorly performing buildings and structures.

Many of our consultants have maintained close ties with academia, and we strongly encourage continuing professional development through research, publication, and committee work. We encourage our engineers to disseminate the lessons we learn from our investigations by publishing articles in technical journals and teaching courses. Our team is located across the San Francisco Bay Area, Irvine, Houston, Chicago, Boston, and New York, and we work together as a tight, integrated team.
