We deliver award-winning bridge and structural designs for complex transportation projects throughout Illinois, Wisconsin, and the Midwest, with many exciting and challenging projects coming up.

  • Provide support during construction, including shop drawing review, RFI responses and site visits.
  • Help project managers with scoping, budgeting, scheduling, and quality checks for deliverables.
  • Coordinate closely with roadway, hydraulics, and geotechnical teams to ensure seamless designs.
