Design Pro
PE Stamped Drawings and
Complete Engineering Support
What design pro Covers
Design Pro is your full-scope engineering service for projects that require certified calculations, structural analysis, and formal approval. When your work demands PE-stamped drawings, you need accuracy, compliance, and a clear understanding of how fabrication connects to real-world structural behaviour. Design Pro gives you access to a licensed structural engineer who understands both engineering principles and the realities of metal fabrication.
Engineer of Record Approved Drawings
Engineer of Record Approved Drawings
Certain projects require an Engineer of Record (EOR) to take responsibility for structural integrity. Design Pro provides full Engineer of Record services, ensuring your drawings align with applicable codes and can be approved without delays. Our team reviews geometry, load paths, weld details, and assembly logic to confirm that every detail meets the required standards.
Structural Design and Analysis
Structural Design and Analysis
A strong structure begins with precise calculations and a clear understanding of how forces move through the assembly. With Design Pro, we provide full structural design and analysis that supports your fabrication workflow. This includes modeling, load assumptions, stress evaluation, connection checks, and code-aligned review based on project needs.
Connection Design per AISC, RCSC, AWS, and Customer Specs
Connection Design per AISC, RCSC, AWS, and Customer Specs
Connection design is often where fabrication and engineering meet. Using standards from AISC, RCSC, and AWS, we prepare connection details that satisfy code requirements and remain practical for your shop. This includes bolts, welds, plates, stiffeners, and load transfer details that must hold up during lifting, installation, and in-service conditions.
Lifting & Handling Design
Lifting & Handling Design
Many assemblies need engineered lift points, beams, or spreader systems that follow strict safety requirements. Design Pro includes complete lifting device engineering, from custom lifters to full equipment frames designed for shop or field handling. These designs consider load distribution, center of gravity, sling angle effects, and structural compliance to ensure the equipment performs safely.
Full Design-Build Coordination
Full Design-Build Coordination
When deadlines are tight and multiple teams are involved, projects move smoother when engineering and fabrication stay aligned. Design Pro offers full design-build coordination from start to finish. This includes evaluating initial concepts, supporting design adjustments, clarifying details for fabrication, and ensuring the final stamped drawings match the shop’s capabilities.
Certified Engineering Confidence
Certified Engineering Confidence
Design Pro gives you a complete engineering partner someone who understands structural requirements, fabrication methods, and field realities. With access to a licensed structural engineer, certified calculations, and stamped documentation, your team can take on projects that require higher accountability and more formal approval.

FAQs About Design Pro
What is included in the Design Pro engineering service?
Design Pro covers everything required for projects that need licensed engineering support. This includes PE-stamped drawings, certified calculations, structural analysis, code compliance checks, connection design, lifting device engineering, and complete design-build coordination.
What standards do you follow for connection design?
All connection designs follow the latest versions of AISC, RCSC, AWS, and any customer-specific specifications. We detail welds, bolts, plates, stiffeners, and load-transfer components based on code requirements and practical fabrication guidelines.
Can you engineer lifting devices or handling solutions?
Yes. Design Pro includes engineered lift points, spreader bars, beams, handling frames, and custom lifting solutions. All lifting designs consider center of gravity, sling angles, load distribution, and structural safety requirements.
Can you provide PE-stamped drawings for my project?
Yes. Design Pro includes access to a licensed Professional Engineer who reviews, certifies, and stamps drawings according to project requirements. All stamped documents follow applicable codes and are prepared for submission to owners, contractors, or regulatory authorities.
Do you offer structural design and load analysis?
Absolutely. We provide full structural engineering services, including modeling, load paths, stress evaluation, deflection checks, and compliance with AISC, RCSC, AWS, and other relevant standards. Every calculation is tailored to real-world fabrication logic and field conditions.
Do you provide support throughout design–build coordination?
Yes. We join your project from concept to completion—reviewing designs, coordinating with fabricators, resolving RFI issues, updating drawings, and ensuring that every stamped document matches both engineering standards and shop capabilities.
