Structural Engineering

The Kercher Group’s varied experience in structural analysis and design for clients including architectural firms, municipalities, and private developers enables us to provide solid solutions that fit the specific needs of every type of project — foundations, bridges, commercial office parks, industrial facilities, or residential complexes, just to name a few.

Structural engineering components are usually the most costly part of a construction project. Because of this, success cannot be defined solely by well-engineered designs. Structural solutions need to be cost-effective without compromising engineering judgment or adherence to codes. In addition, the firm’s senior members draw on their years of direct construction experience to assess every facet of constructability during internal reviews of all projects to reduce costs further and to eliminate delays and design changes during construction.
