Structural Engineer Data Infrastructure

Key Responsibilities:

Modular Product Design (Steel & Dynamics)

• Structural Analysis: Perform advanced static and dynamic analysis on modular steel enclosures. Calculate stresses for multiple load cases including transportation shock/vibration, crane lifting/rigging (pick points), and stacking configurations.

• Steel Detailing: Design and seal cold-formed and hot-rolled steel assemblies in accordance with AISC 360 and AISI S100.

• Connection Design: optimize connection details (moment frames, braced frames) for mass production, minimizing field welding in favor of bolted, verifiable connections.

• Equipment Support: Design integrated dunnage and support systems for heavy mechanical/electrical equipment (Chillers, Generators, Switchgear) within the module, accounting for seismic anchorage and vibration isolation.

Site Infrastructure (Concrete & Foundation)

• Foundation Design: Engineer shallow and deep foundation systems (mat slabs, spread footings, piles) for high-load industrial sites. Interpret geotechnical reports to determine bearing capacities and settlement limits.

• Seismic Engineering: Execute rigorous seismic analysis for high-seismic zones (SDC D, E, F) per ASCE 7-22. Design lateral force-resisting systems to ensure operational continuity post-event.

• Plan of Record (POR): Develop standardized foundation templates that can be adapted by A&E firms for specific sites, reducing engineering cycle time.

Coordination & Compliance

• BIM Management: Maintain the Structural Revit model. Coordinate continuously with MEP disciplines to resolve clashes (pipe penetrations, duct routing) before fabrication.

• Code Compliance: Ensure full adherence to IBC, ACI 318 (Concrete), AISC 341 (Seismic Provisions), and local amendments.

• Third-Party Review: Manage external structural peer reviews and coordinate with local jurisdictions for permitting and plan checks.
