Insights & Articles
We regularly publish technical insights on structural engineering, code compliance, connection design, and advanced FEA to help owners, designers, and contractors make better decisions.
Optimizing Structures with FEA
Engineering design today is shaped by an ever-growing demand for accuracy, safety, and efficiency. As projects become more complex and performance expectations rise, the traditional methods of structural and mechanical analysis are being replaced—or at least strongly complemented—by digital simulation. At the heart of this transformation lies Finite Element Analysis (FEA), a numerical method that predicts how components and structures behave under real-world loading conditions.
FEA divides a model into a mesh of tiny “finite” elements. Each element obeys the laws of physics, and together they replicate the global behavior of the entire system.
Understanding Strut–Waler Loads in Excavation and Tunneling Projects
Deep excavations for high-rise buildings, underground parking structures, and increasingly for tunneling and subway line construction demand advanced temporary support systems to control soil movement and maintain stability.
Whether constructing a 100-foot-deep basement in an urban core or a metro station box beneath a busy street, the challenge is the same: resist enormous lateral earth and groundwater pressures safely and efficiently.
The Role of the Prime Consultant: Coordinating Design, Code, and Permits in Modern Building Projects
In the delivery of modern buildings — whether residential developments, community centers, or educational facilities — the complexity of design, regulation, and coordination continues to grow. What once involved a single designer now requires multiple specialists: architects, structural engineers, mechanical and electrical consultants, and code experts.

Structural Engineering FAQs
Do I need a structural engineer for removing a load-bearing wall?
Yes. Any time you remove or modify a load-bearing wall, you’re changing how loads travel through the structure. A structural engineer evaluates existing framing, designs a safe replacement beam or lintel, and provides stamped drawings required for permit and construction.Can you help with both residential and industrial projects?
Yes. We work on residential renovations and additions, commercial buildings, and industrial structures and equipment supports. Our experience ranges from houses and small buildings to complex process, lab, and industrial facilities.Do you provide site visits and inspections?
Yes. We regularly perform on-site reviews to assess existing conditions, confirm load paths, review contractor work, and support building officials or owners during construction.Which codes and standards do you design to?
Our designs are based on current Canadian and international standards, including CSA, NBC/OBC, CISC, AISC, ASCE, and other applicable codes for steel, concrete, wood, and masonry structures.Can you work as prime or lead structural consultant on larger projects?
Yes. Sepco Consulting Engineers can coordinate structural design with architects, other engineers, and project stakeholders, including code compliance and permit submissions.
