Equilibria Structural Engineering

What We Do

Equilibria is a structural engineering firm that provides services for residential, multi-family and commercial projects. We have experience working with a wide variety of building systems and components ranging from conventional light wood framed construction to large scale commercial steel framed structures.

We produce only top quality construction documents and design calculations. Our structural markups, layouts, framing and foundation plans and calculations are never sketched by hand or red-lined. All of our work is prepared in a professional, digital format for optimal clarity.

News and Updates

The unique and challenging Designs Northwest office building began construction in January of 2017. This 2-story combination concrete tilt-up and wood framed structure is being built on a flood plain and was designed to resist fluid pressures, as well as byouancy uplift forces. The tilt-up video shown here was shot in about the span of 3 hours.

Jason Lindquist P.E., S.E. was recently featured on the American Society of Civil Engineers online magazine and Sourceable online regarding a project he completed several years ago.

Adding Value

When comparing engineering firms, it's helpful to keep in mind the value that a good engineer can bring to your projects. An experienced engineer that is able to spend an appropriate amount of time and energy on a project can significantly reduce the cost of the overall construction.
