Broad and Unique Capabilities

Metal-Plate-Connected (MPC) Wood Truss engineering is a specialized area of expertise. Few structural engineers are familiar with designing trusses using proprietary metal plate connectors. Structural engineers typically delegate truss design to truss engineers. We bridge the gap with experience designing both buildings and truss components. Nearly 30 years of combined engineering experience designing metal-plate-connected wood trusses.
