Structural Engineering for Building Design and Construction

Summit’s structural designs guide the construction process in key elements including the foundation, framing, elevations and more. Summit’s award winning engineers are experienced in building design and construction.

Summit’s team designs the framework for the construction of intelligent and effective structures to accommodate many different sectors and applications. Summit engineering uses BIM Building Information Model ing software as their design tool of choice. BIM Modeling provides 3D designs and pinpoint planning before the construction begins.
