A shoring design specialist is the critical partner for ensuring construction safety and progress. At Studio A Engineering, we deliver expert shoring design with the rigor and precision modern projects demand. With over two decades of dedicated experience, our team ensures the absolute stability of your site.
Our Shoring Design & Inspection Services
Rigorous Design, Plans & Drawings
Our core objective is to provide you with detailed and rigorous shoring designs and plans. Our AutoCAD specialists know the value of demand and are fully devoted to giving you the outcome you need, with a focus on ultimate professionalism.
Expertise in All Major Shoring Systems
We have extensive, hands-on experience serving world-class industrial leaders with both European and US systems, including Peri, Alsina, Safway, Doka, Aluma, and Symons.
Threshold & Special Shoring Inspections
We have licensed special inspectors and professional engineers on staff who can perform the shoring threshold inspection as required by the engineer of record and all applicable Florida codes, especially for high-rise projects.
Formwork & Load-Bearing Support
We provide critical engineering plans for temporary structures, formwork design, and scaffolding to ensure every phase of your project is stable and secure for all workers.
High-Rise & Commercial Project Specialist
Our two decades of experience are concentrated on the most demanding projects, including big commercial buildings and high-rises that require the highest level of shoring inspection and design expertise.
100% Safety & Code Compliance
We have successfully executed hundreds of projects with 100% safety compliance. Our designs strictly adhere to both OSHA regulations and the Florida Building Code to ensure a safe work environment and prevent costly delays.
Why You Need a Shoring Design Specialist
In the high-stakes environment of Florida construction, there is no room for error. A general structural engineer may understand buildings, but a shoring design specialist understands the unique physics of temporary structures. We focus on the immense loads from wet concrete and the lateral pressures of deep excavations.
Preventing Catastrophic Failure
A shoring failure is not just an expensive delay; it is a life-safety event. A signed and sealed engineering plan from a shoring design specialist is your best defense against these disasters, ensuring every load path is calculated and accounted for. This is crucial for meeting the strict safety standards required by OSHA and the Florida Building Code.
Optimizing Construction Efficiency
A true specialist doesn’t just design for safety; they design for speed. By optimizing the spacing of shores and providing clear, easy-to-read plans, we help your crew work faster and more confidently. Our services are tailored to be practical and constructible, minimizing material waste and labor time on site.
Specialization in Vertical Construction & Formwork
While excavation shoring is critical, a true shoring design specialist also excels in vertical construction. For multi-story buildings, the formwork—the temporary mold that holds wet concrete—is a massive structural system in itself. The weight of the wet concrete, combined with the weight of workers and equipment, can be immense.
Our team provides detailed formwork and reshoring plans that are essential for high-rise projects. We calculate the exact number of post shores required, the specific sequence for stripping forms, and the reshoring needed to support the “green” slabs as they cure. This meticulous planning prevents slab deflection, cracking, and catastrophic deck collapse, ensuring that the speed of your construction cycle never compromises the safety and integrity of the final structure. This level of detail is what separates a general practitioner from a shoring design specialist.
