Erection procedures, work platforms, and sequencing plans developed for steel erectors and general contractors, adapting on the fly as construction sequences evolve.
Custom rigging and lift planning, temporary shoring, and falsework design for complex installations, from precision art pieces to large-scale suspended structures.
Constructability review and connection design across multi-sequence construction programs, resolving non-standard geometries before they reach the field.
Constructable solutions for temporary event structures and modular, componentized construction delivered on accelerated, high-profile schedules.
A curated selection of our erection engineering, rigging, and constructability work behind some of the most complex builds in the country.
Developed erection procedures for the interior catwalk structures and work platforms on the precast stadia, modifying platforms on the fly to accommodate 180-foot boom lifts as the construction sequence evolved to support the immersive surface structure suspended from the catwalks.
Assisted Beck Steel with erection and cable-stressing plan engineering for the expansion of the busiest land border crossing in the Western Hemisphere, developing a falsework platform to manage cable connection and load distribution while erecting the primary canopy steel.
Constructable structural solutions for 240,000 square feet of three-story temporary hospitality structures and grandstands, nearly 75% built within the Bellagio fountain basin, delivered on an accelerated four-week installation timeline for the inaugural Las Vegas Grand Prix.
Engineered the crane lift plan, temporary shoring systems, and custom rigging configurations for a large-scale public art installation, providing on-site observation for both its original installation in 2009 and its removal in 2021.
Developed internal support structures for the fabric scrim panels concealing the Occulus video board's support structure, using 3D BIM modeling for the spline curve fabrication drawings and adjustable connections for rapid field installation.
A custom pump-handle cantilever lifting bar enabled precise rigging of the stadium's primary exterior video wall, with anchorage designs that let the contractor accelerate embed sourcing while protecting the glass cladding systems during installation.
Connection design and constructability review across five major construction sequences for new industrial crane buildings comprising over 14,000 tons of structural steel, using IDEA StatiCa to resolve connection geometries falling outside standard AISC details.
Erection and fabrication support for the atrium stair system at 10th and O in San Francisco.
Fabrication and erection support for the award-winning 3-story spiral staircase at the Buddy Holly Museum, featuring changing radii across a 56-foot clear height — later featured in Modern Steel Construction.
Structural models were shared directly between Innova, the Theming Contractor, and wall supplier YESCO to resolve the buildable geometry of City Hall's dynamic undulating wall façade — a striking northwest corner feature with shifting planes and curved surfaces.
