Our
Structural Engineering Capabilities Include:
·Commercial
Office Buildings
TFM
Structural Engineers have experience
with a variety of office building
designs,
including
those with garages under the main structure. We
have
been involved with projects that include fast-track
scheduling and coordination
with construction managers.
TFM Structural Engineers can assist you
in developing your building project to adapt to the changing needs of
prospective tenants. We are experienced with renovation and change-of-use
of older buildings as well as structural design to "dress-up" the exterior
for downtown revitalization projects.
·Industrial/Research
and Development
Industrial
and R&D projects usually have specific needs such as heavy equipment
loads, raised access flooring and state-of-the-art ventilation requirements.
TFM Structural Engineers can design facilities to support heavy industrial
equipment, process piping, air handling equipment, vibrating and vibration
sensitive equipment.
·Institutional
Our
engineers have designed several elementary and secondary schools for
communities all over New England. Many of these projects involved extensive
renovation, modifications and additions to existing school facilities.
TFM has also designed new school facilities with such amenities as elevated
walking tracks, tv and radio stations, auditoriums and libraries.
·Retail
Renovation
of an existing building and adapting it to the needs of the retail space
is sometimes difficult when there is no documentation of the existing
structure. TFM engineers are experienced in surveying the building
structural components, analyzing and rating the structure for allowable
live loads and adapting a building to a new use. We have been involved
in historic preservation projects, designing hidden reinforcement to
bring the building up to current code requirements while preserving
the original appearance of the structure.
·Residential
TFM
is involved in design of residential apartment and condominium projects
with local architects and developers. We have assisted architects and
contractors with the design of beams and other supports, reinforcements,
remedial work and review of as-built conditions.
