OUR PROJECTS

DOP Engineering was hired to provide structural design and documentation for a rooftop mechanical equipment attachment in a shopping plaza. The client, a pharmacy owner, needed to securely install a generator on the existing concrete roof.

Scope of Work

Our engineers developed drawings and calculations for:

• A structural curb system for the mechanical equipment attachment.
• Openings in the slab for required ductwork.
• A new aluminum guardrail system around the perimeter.

Design Considerations

All structural solutions were designed to meet the 2023 Florida Building Code. This included addressing wind loads, fall protection, and ensuring adequate support over double-tee concrete systems to maintain rooftop safety and code compliance.

Key Features

• Curb design and anchor layout to secure the unit.
• Integration with existing structural elements.
• Lightweight aluminum guardrails.
• Built-in corrosion protection and durability.

This project highlights DOP Engineering’s ability to deliver tailored solutions, combining safety, code compliance, and long-term reliability.
