Wood structural engineering
Light-frame and engineered wood systems with clear shear walls, diaphragms, and connection details for residential and multifamily buildings.
Structural Engineering
Permit-ready design for wood, steel, and concrete
Structexa provides structural engineering services with PE-stamped structural analysis and design for wood, steel, and concrete buildings — gravity and lateral systems engineered to IBC and ASCE 7 for permit-ready construction documents across the USA.
As a structural engineering consultant for owners, developers, architects, and contractors, Structexa designs efficient load paths for new construction, additions, remodels, hillside sites, and seismic upgrades. Packages include structural engineering calculations, coordinated details, and PE stamping where the jurisdiction requires a seal.
Our structural design services cover building structural engineering from foundation through framing and lateral systems. We develop seismic and wind loads to ASCE 7, then deliver permit-ready structural drawings and plan-check support so submittals clear agency review with fewer RFIs.
We coordinate with architects, MEP designers, and contractors so wood, steel, and concrete framing stay constructible — with structural value engineering and constructability review when budgets or field conditions demand a sharper solution.

Delivery
How our structural engineering process works
Scope review
Confirm jurisdiction, occupancy, and structural system before structural analysis and design begins.
Analysis & design
Develop gravity and lateral solutions, foundations, and load paths with coordinated markups.
Construction documents
Issue permit-ready structural drawings and structural engineering calculations for submittal.
PE stamp & plan check
Stamp deliverables and provide structural plan-check support through agency approval.
Common questions
Structural engineering FAQs
Do you provide PE-stamped structural drawings?
Yes. Where the jurisdiction requires a Professional Engineer seal, Structexa issues PE-stamped structural drawings and supporting structural engineering calculations after internal QC.
Does Structexa provide structural engineering services nationwide?
Yes. We deliver structural engineering services for building projects across the USA, with multi-state PE coverage and coordination with our architectural, civil, MEP, and HVAC practices when needed.
What building types do you design?
We provide building structural engineering for wood, steel, and concrete systems — residential, hillside, multifamily, commercial, tenant improvement, and light industrial projects, including additions, remodels, and seismic upgrades.
Do you deliver structural engineering calculations and permit-ready plans?
Yes. Typical packages include structural engineering calculations, permit-ready structural drawings, connection details, and plan-check responses through approval.
Can you coordinate with our architect and MEP team?
Yes. We mark up shared sets, resolve framing and shaft conflicts early, and keep structural sheets aligned with the full permit package.
