DOP Engineering proudly provided comprehensive structural engineering services for a new 2-story mixed-use building spanning approximately 11,285 square feet in Hobe Sound, Florida.
Particularly, our expertise in structural design and analysis played a vital role in ensuring the safety, stability, and resilience of this impressive structure.
Firstly, our team meticulously designed wall footings and implemented isolated footings to optimize stability and load distribution, aligning with allowable soil bearing capacity.
Additionally, we utilized a CMU (Concrete Masonry Unit) wall framing system supplemented by poured tie-beams and concrete columns to create a robust structural framework.
Equally important, for the second floor, we successfully applied the Epicore system, incorporating key large concrete beams measuring approximately 12×24 feet.
Subsequently, prefabricated roof trusses were strategically positioned based on load distribution analysis, enabling the design of a flexible diaphragm and strategic placement of straps for enhanced structural resilience and lateral behaviour.
Undoubtedly our commitment to excellence is evident in this project, showcasing our dedication to innovation, precision, and quality at DOP Engineering.
Above all, we are proud to have contributed to the successful realization of this new mixed-use building in collaboration with Marjorie Carrillo Architect, PLLC.
