Structural Design & Analysis

At D’Huy Engineering, Inc., licensed engineers with advanced educational degrees and decades of practical experience provide clients with superior technical exper- tise and innovative solutions to complex prob- lems. The capabilities of our experienced and talented design staff is further enhanced by the expertise available from DEI’s forensic, project management and facilities personnel.

Educational & Public Facilities D’Huy Engineering, Inc. has established a strong reputation for providing practical, innovative and economical structur- al design solutions for both Educational and Public Facilities. Our design service experience in this arena is further en- hanced by the insight provided through in house facilities engineering staff, which ensures that our structural designs are well coordinated with the Client’s schedule and budget.

Our design and analysis efforts incorporate the aspects of ingenuity, constructibility and economy to deliver to our clients practical creative structural design solutions. DEI maintains a design philosophy which recognizes the need to combine the advantag- es of rapidly evolving computer technology with the traditional attributes of engineering judgment and experience. Our engineering design capabilities extend from new building construction to the renovation and resto- ration of existing and historic structures, and include design of foundation and retaining wall systems and specialty structures. Many clients have come to us by “word of mouth”, and our long list of repeat clientele is a testa- ment to the quality of the product we pro- duce.

Commercial, Retail, Industrial and Office Facilities D’Huy Engineering, Inc. performs structural design for a variety of commercial, office, retail and industrial buildings. These projects can vary significantly in both structural re- quirements and overall project scope, encompassing addi- tions, renovations and new construction. A significant aspect of these projects is determining the owner’s priorities relating to cost, schedule, use and life expectancy. Since the structural systems utilized for these projects are dependent on structure type and architectural requirements, clients are appreciative of our experience in determining the most appropriate struc- tural system, the most cost effective structural materials, and the most buildable structural design.

Restoration & Re-use of Existing Facilities An extension of D’Huy Engineering, Inc.’s brownstone renovation work includes providing design services to re- store and rehabilitate existing structures for re-use. Typ- ically these projects involve a change in occupancy or use of a current facility, which often requires re-eval- uation of floor capacities. Revitalizing existing struc- tures to create an updated more usable space that bene- fits the community where it is located is a very rewarding aspect of this work. Accommodating varying floor heights, preserving the exterior facade, and integrating new con- struction with the existing structure are a few of the design challenges associated with these projects.

Foundation Systems, Retaining Walls & Sea Wall Structures D’Huy Engineering, Inc. is experienced in the analysis and de- sign of projects involving earth and water retaining systems, foundations and sea wall structures. Environmental and Civil Engineering firms as well as the Military sector rely on DEI for the design and development of retaining wall solutions. Our retaining wall projects range from soldier pile sheeting and shoring design for contractors in rural and urban areas to concrete and steel seawall structures for the Navy along the Atlantic Coastline. As dictated by specific project cri- teria, we have also provided our clients with foundation solutions using deep foundation systems consisting of wood timbers piles, steel mini-pile systems, and precast concrete piles in both land and water applications.

Brownstone & Historic Structure Renovations Since 1994 D’Huy Engineering, Inc. has successfully com- pleted over 100 brownstone renovation projects in the New York City metro area, with a majority of them falling within the Landmarks Preservation Commission’s (LPC) control. We find that the uniqueness of each structure and the challenges of each renovation, whether large or small, make this type of work both enjoyable and rewarding. DEI works closely with the owner, architect and often the contractor to develop proj- ect requirements for specific design aspects and determine material selection for structural components.

Specialty Structures D’Huy Engineering Inc.’s unique combination of design and forensic investigation experience has provided our design team with the engineering technical skills to undertake projects that are of a non- conventional nature.

In 1979, D’Huy Engineering, Inc. (DEI) performed a structural investigation of Yankee Stadium. Since that time, the firm has developed a highly respected reputation in the field of forensic engineering. DEI’s forensic engineering experience ranges from the full investigation of large scale collapses to performance evaluations of specific structural components and building facades. DEI’s uniquely trained experts provide a detailed, innovative and common sense approach to investigation and retrofit design.

Our emphasis on accuracy, attention to detail, and innovative yet practical approach to problem solving has garnered DEI a national reputation in forensic engineering. As part of our Forensic Engineering Ser- vice, DEI provides detail analyses, in depth field surveys, expert reports, litigation support and expert tes- timony, as necessary. Our commitment to integrity is the basis for all of our forensic engineering efforts, and we believe this emphasis has been the catalyst for DEI’s remarkable history of success in this area of practice.
