OUR PROJECTS

Project Type: Pergola Design.

Location: Pembroke Pines, Florida.

DOP Engineering completed the structural verification and design documentation for a wood pergola at a private residence in Pembroke Pines, Florida.

The pergola measures 10 feet by 12 feet with an 8 foot height and is attached to the main structure at the rear of the house. Built entirely from wood, it provides a shaded outdoor area while maintaining a light and open aesthetic suited to the residential setting.

Our team reviewed the existing conditions and developed signed and sealed structural documentation to confirm the pergola’s compliance with local building and wind load requirements. The work included verifying the connection details to the main structure and ensuring the design met the Florida Building Code (FBC) standards for residential structures in high-wind zones.

Through careful analysis and documentation, DOP Engineering helped the homeowner ensure the pergola’s safety, durability, and regulatory compliance, allowing it to remain a functional and code-approved feature of the property.
