Our expertise includes:
Every rehabilitation project tells a unique story. Our engineers collaborate with preservation advocates, architects, and property owners to restore each project for future generations.
Every project ensures:
As proud sponsors of the Cincinnati Preservation Society, we’re passionate about maintaining the Queen City’s distinctive character through thoughtful structural restoration.
Every rehabilitation or stabilization project requires a tailored approach based on the structure’s unique history and current condition. Advantage Structural Engineers’ comprehensive services address all aspects of structural restoration, from initial assessment through completion.
Our rehabilitation process begins with a thorough structural evaluation. We assess multiple factors to determine the safest, most cost-effective restoration approach.
Aging structures often require foundation reinforcement and stabilization work. Our team excels at strengthening existing foundations and structural systems while preserving architectural integrity.
Every building tells a story through its construction methods. Our engineers study long-standing techniques to understand how structures were initially built.
This knowledge guides our restoration solutions. We know the history, limitations, and capacities of materials and methods that modern builders rarely encounter.
Older structures teach us valuable lessons. Each project expands our understanding of how to safely improve aging buildings while respecting their original design intent.
Successful restoration requires collaboration. We conduct comprehensive site evaluations to identify challenges early in the planning process.
Our consultation includes:
Early coordination prevents costly surprises. Our team works to identify potential structural complications before construction begins.
Benefits of early engagement:
Cincinnati’s downtown transformation creates unique opportunities for adaptive reuse. We evaluate existing structures for new purposes and different occupancy types.
Conversion expertise includes:
Converting existing spaces to new uses requires careful structural analysis. We ensure buildings can safely accommodate different loads and modern living requirements.
Although we’re a focused firm, we tackle prestigious, complex rehabilitation projects throughout the United States. We work in all but six states, bringing Cincinnati-based expertise to restoration solutions nationwide.
We are committed to being an involved team member on your next restoration project, helping to revitalize neglected structures and breathe new life into your project.
