Structural Engineers Near Berkeley

“I was looking for a structural engineer for a kitchen project and shortlisted ProStruct given their experience with such projects. They did a great job and all the structural drawings and calculations were delivered in a timely manner and to my expectations. Highly satisfied with their work and professionalism.”

“I am a building designer and I have been working with Mike Abell and City Structural on multiple residential renovation projects in the San Francisco Bay Area. City Structural was recommended to me by a friend for a house expansion project. True to his reputation as an exceptionally talented engineer, Mike was able to develop an optimal structural design that respected the existing house framing and proposed minimal interventions so we can reduce the projected construction cost significantly. Our latest project together is a new 3-story house in San Francisco, where he designed a clever engineering system without any adjustments required to the complex architectural design. The engineering system for this project works without steel despite the unconventional architecture with pulled or pushed volumes varying on each level and along all three facades visible from the street. Here are some of the highlights of my experience working with City Structural: - Implementation of cost-effective yet high-performing structural applications - Significant cost savings during construction due to the thoughtful engineering design. - Exceptional attention to both engineering and architectural details - Substantial effort to develop design that addresses specific architectural design or client’s requirements - Production of engineering set of plans that are precise, well organized and thoroughly detailed to include information that is way above the minimum required for permit approval - Mike is not only extremely knowledgeable, but also friendly, easy to reach, prompt and professional I always recommended City Structural to my clients or friends who are looking for a structural engineer. I have noticed that even when people have multiple recommendations for engineers, they always end up choosing to work with Mike. I wish Mike continued professional success!
