Excellent service. Delivered as promised. Military friendly. I had an engineering/ Elevation drawing completed for a Fence around my Property in Coral Springs for Permitting Approval. They keep you informed throughout the process and completed the drawing in a timely manner. I also liked that they sent me a draft so I was able to verify with the City before final signature and seal. They are fast and efficient and produce quality drawings that complies with the city and hurricane codes.

Custom Aluminum Pergola in Weston, Florida

Project Type: Custom metal solutions

Location: Weston, Florida

Client: Yardepot

Project Overview

For this project in Weston, Florida, DOP Engineering provided structural drawings for a custom aluminum pergola designed to enhance outdoor living. Placed near the pool, this pergola offers both shade and architectural appeal while ensuring long-term durability in outdoor conditions.

 
Design & Materials

The pergola features aluminum posts and beams, selected for their strength, lightweight nature, and resistance to corrosion. The roof consists of composite aluminum panels, which provide protection from the elements while maintaining a modern, clean aesthetic. A reinforced concrete foundation secures the structure, ensuring stability against wind loads and daily use.

 

Engineering Considerations

Structural integrity was a key factor in the design process. The pergola’s aluminum framework was engineered to distribute loads efficiently, reducing stress on individual components. The concrete footings provide a solid base, preventing shifting over time. These details ensure the structure remains safe, durable, and compliant with building codes.

 

Functionality & Aesthetic Appeal

Beyond providing shade, this pergola adds a stylish focal point to the outdoor area. The combination of aluminum and composite materials creates a balance between durability and elegance, making it a low-maintenance yet visually appealing addition to the space.

 

At DOP Engineering, we specialize in structural design and custom metal solutions tailored to our clients’ needs. By integrating high-quality materials with expert engineering, we create structures that enhance both functionality and aesthetics.

Rooftop Mechanical Equipment Attachment

Project Type: Mechanical Equipment Attachment

Location: Miami, Florida

Client: Private 

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.

Addition Design for a Modern Home Expansion

Location: Miami Shores, Florida.

Project Type: Residential Addition and Retrofit.

Client: Blank Design and Architecture

 

DOP Engineering provided the structural engineering design for this modern home expansion. It combined a new rear addition with upgrades to the existing structure. The main challenge was to achieve the client’s vision for panoramic front and rear façades while still maintaining proper lateral stability for the main wind force-resisting system.

 

To address this challenge, our team introduced interior shear walls and performed a detailed diaphragm analysis. This step was essential because the primary lateral load-bearing walls were located eccentrically. As a result, the design required special attention to load transfer and system performance under wind loads.

 

In addition, a portion of the existing roof was replaced after the structural review. A custom connection was also developed to integrate the new roof system with the existing framing.

 

The structure now features CMU walls, concrete beams, and steel columns and beams that support the glass façades. These elements are tied into wood roof framing over wall footings with a crawl space.

 

Overall, this retrofit and addition project required close coordination with the design team. Through this collaboration, DOP Engineering delivered a tailored engineering solution that ensured both structural strength and architectural openness.
