Entuitive’s Construction Engineering service provides engineering support to both contractors and owners during active construction. We also offer bid-phase support when construction methods have substantial influence on the finished structure.

By combining our creativity and disciplined imagination with our technical knowledge, our Construction Engineering team develops innovative solutions to the unique challenges presented in the construction of new structures and the rehabilitation of existing structures. Just as importantly, our team recognizes when innovation is not justified, and conventional methods will yield the largest benefit to our client.

Our service includes the design of temporary components to facilitate the construction of permanent structures, the development of engineered procedures and sequences for construction and deconstruction of structures, the provision of alternative designs to suit preferred construction methods, and assistance to contractors and owners in addressing unexpected field conditions or errors in construction.

What Makes Construction Engineering Different at Entuitive?

The design process is often iterative and draws upon the combined knowledge of both Entuitive and our client. The project team leads are often senior staff who participate in the technical delivery of the project. We remain dedicated and flexible throughout the implementation of the project so that we can address changes, emergency conditions, and go to site when required.

A significant component to Entuitive’s Construction Engineering service is emergency issue support. Emergency issue support typically involves addressing unforeseen field conditions, contract design issues, or contractor errors that need immediate response to allow work to continue or establish safe conditions. In any of these cases immediate engineering effort is required through analysis, site presence, or alternative design to provide a solution that enables continued operations or at least restoration of safe conditions.

Construction engineering work requires upfront collaboration with the contractor to identify available systems and resources. Entuitive recognizes this need and always works collaboratively with our client to utilize the available resources and ensure that the work is implemented successfully and efficiently.
