Structural engineering is the selection of members and systems to ensure the structural adequacy of your project during extreme events. In other words, it’s making sure your project won’t fall down when the snow falls, the wind blows, and the earth quakes! Structural engineering is considered a subset of civil engineering, but it truly has a life of its own.

For solar farms, structural engineering includes sizing and design of the racking, panel support piping, and concrete foundation. For wind farms, this includes design of the blades, tower, and foundation. PSE will also design and engineer the Operations and Maintenance (O&M) building and any other associated outbuildings.

In addition to standard projects, our structural staff is fully equipped to handle more complex challenges. Our in-house structural toolset includes:

  • Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for complex structure geometries,
  • Design and analysis of structural steel, concrete, and masonry buildings,
  • Advanced dynamic analysis of structures under earthquake loading,
  • … and more!

Additionally, between our own staff and our partnered firms, we have structural licenses available in all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia!

We can be a strong partner for your structural engineering and design work, allowing you to focus your effort on your business’s own unique core competencies.

Introducing PSE Renewables

SANDY, Utah – Precision Systems Engineering, a leading engineering, and design consulting firm, has a 27-year history in industrial engineering, design, and project management. Now, we are pleased to announce that we are bringing that expertise into the renewables sector!

We have engineers licensed in 26 U.S. states, and have partnered with other firms to provide licenses in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Our firm currently provides the following consulting services:

  • Electrical, controls, and automation engineering
  • Civil and structural engineering
  • Mechanical engineering
  • Construction procurement
  • Construction management and project management

The renewables market is currently in an era of explosive, unprecedented growth. Consider this:

  • The U.S. installed 2.5 GW of solar in Q1 2018, bringing the total installed capacity to 55.9 GW – enough to power 10.7 million homes.[1] Industrial-scale solar farms, in particular, offer a low cost per unit of electricity, and promise a high rate of return for owners and developers.
  • Wind farms also offer clean, renewable energy with attractive rates of return. Over 90 GW of wind capacity has been installed[2], enough to power 17.2 million homes.

At PSE, we believe these numbers will only continue to increase. That is why we are now bringing our nearly three decades of experience and leadership to renewables projects nationwide. We are guided by a “value-first” engineering philosophy that ensures we bring value to your projects with every engineering decision we make.

Structural Engineering

Structural engineering — a specialty within the field of civil engineering — focuses on the framework of structures, and on designing those structures to withstand the stresses and pressures of their environment and remain safe, stable and secure throughout their use. In other words, structural engineers make sure that buildings don’t fall down and bridges don’t collapse.

Structural engineering is among the oldest types of engineering, dating back to the first instance of tree branches being lashed together with vines to make a shelter. Throughout recorded history, people have been designing and building increasingly larger and more sophisticated structures, from primitive huts to the International Space Station.

The names of the earliest practitioners of structural engineering are lost to antiquity. We will never know who designed the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Parthenon or the aqueducts of the Roman Empire. Some of the latter-day practitioners in this field are known, although often not as well as the structures they designed. Prominent structural engineers include Gustave Eiffel (Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty) and Eero Saarinen (Gateway Arch). However, most designs for famous modern structures such as the Large Hadron Collider and the James Webb Space Telescope are attributed to companies and government organizations.

What does a structural engineer do?

Structural engineers often work alongside civil engineers and architects as part of a construction team. “In a nutshell,” according to the Institution of Structural Engineers, “if a structure was a human body, then the architect would be concerned with the body shape and appearance, and the structural engineer would be concerned with the skeleton and sinews.”

Structures must be able to deal with the conditions in which they are built. A house in Canada must have a roof that can bear the weight of heavy snow and a stadium in California must be able to withstand earthquakes, for example. When building bridges, designers must take into account the conditions of terrain, wind, and traffic volume. Structural engineers consider all of these factors and provide technical advice about the project.

Structural engineers “design roof framing (beams, rafters, joists, trusses), floor framing (floor decks, joists, beams, trusses, girders), arches, columns, braces, frames, foundations and walls,” according to the National Council of Structural Engineers Association. “In bridges, they design the deck — or riding surface, girders or stringers, and piers. The materials they use include steel, concrete, wood, masonry, and aluminum. Engineers design the structure to resist forces from gravity, earthquakes, high winds, water, soil, collisions and blast explosions.”

Most structural-engineering jobs require at least a bachelor’s degree in engineering. Many employers, particularly those that offer engineering consulting services, also require certification as a professional engineer. A master’s degree is often required for promotion to management, and ongoing education and training are needed to keep up with advances in technology, materials, computer hardware and software and government regulations. Additionally, many structural engineers belong to the Structural Engineering Institute of the American Society of Civil Engineers.
