Our team has both the experience & expertise to provide you with the most professional solution for your engineering needs!

Residential Design
Residential Design

We can help you develop your program and plan: from site selection and building orientation to space planning and interior design. Whether you are looking for a stamped foundation drawing to accompany your modular house plans, or you would like to fully develop a set of customized construction documents, we can help you achieve your goals.

Modular Building Systems
Modular Building Systems

The use of modular systems can have significant economic benefits.  Whether you are considering a modular residence or your commercial project may be appropriate for modular wall, floor or roof systems, we can help with any stage of the design.

Engineered Wood Products
Engineered Wood Products

From laminated veneer lumber (LVLs) to I-joist framing, the evaluation and selection of products to be considered for your project can be daunting.  We can help with the design of systems utilizing these products and can assist with the evaluation of products for suitability on your project.

Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings

The pre-engineered building manufacturers offer enormous value to customers and Red Hook Engineering can help with the evaluation and selection of products, the planning required for space utilization and the design of foundation systems to support the structures.

Lateral Load Resisting Systems – Wind and Seismic

The wind blows and the earth shakes and Red Hook Engineering can help to ensure that your building can withstand the elements. Yes, even in New York, potential seismic forces may control the structural design of buildings, although most cases in our area are controlled by wind loads.  We can provide the calculations necessary for the design…

Framing Systems

Buildings need a roof to keep out the elements, floors to support the occupants and walls to provide vertical support and space definition.  We can provide economical design solutions to fit the needs of your project.  Some options include: Conventional “stick framing” with dimension lumber or light gauge steel; Engineered Lumber solutions, such as I-joist…

Foundations

Building frames transfer the weights of materials and occupants along with the forces of wind and earthquakes, but need a foundation to transmit those loads to the ground.  Whether your project is a multi-story commercial building, or a modular residence, we can design he right foundation system to suit your needs and your site.

Retaining Walls

When a sloped surface cannot meet the design requirements, or when a large grade change is necessary, a wall can be constructed to retain soils and enable the desired elevation changes.  We can design these walls for your project.  Segmental walls, using geotechnical engineered fabrics, or walls constructed of reinforced masonry, concrete or wood are…

Steel, Concrete, Masonry and Wood

The materials of structural engineering design utilized in conventional building construction include these basic elements.  Whether utilizing the current design Code from AISC, ACI or AWC, we can design the structural elements necessary to support the loads required for your project.
