EM Structural

Last month, Kris enjoyed catching a Canes game with Lindsey Kretchmen from Cline and Patrick Wade from Blue Heron.

It was even better getting to watch the Canes close out the season as Stanley Cup Champions!

The Raleigh office got in a little practice at PinPoint before Brian Scanlon and Zoe West represented EM Structural at the AIA Pickleball Tournament.

It was a fun way to connect with the local AEC community and spend time with our peers!

As buildings increase in height, lateral systems begin to drive the design.

Wind, seismic forces, and overall building movement all need to be considered early. That coordination shapes everything from structural layout to overall efficiency.

Work in high-seismic regions requires an additional layer of analysis to ensure performance under more demanding conditions. Our experience in higher seismic design categories, along with tools such as wind tunnel studies, helps us to take a more refined approach to both performance and material use.
