Engineering

Our core strength is our engineering services. It makes our design services better as it provides us a unique ability to simultaneously balance the physics of water and fluid engineering with structural design and architectural finishes and details.

Construction Observation

Engineering for pools, spas, waterfeatures, and aquatic exhibits includes several interrelated disciplines including structural, mechanical, electrical plumbing, and more. Our firm is particularly good at creative problem solving using our extensive experience to find unique solutions to cutting-edge designs.

Although we do not perform geotechnical services, soils are the foundation for every structure and we do require certain parameters to complete our work.
