Building Addition & Renovation Design in Sioux Falls

Our engineers understand the unique challenges of designing building additions and renovations in the Great Plains, especially Sioux Falls. We take a strategic approach to every project, identifying the necessary steps to ensure success. By analyzing the existing structure, we determine whether strengthening or repairs are needed before expansion or renovation begins, ensuring the new construction seamlessly integrates with the original design. We collaborate closely with all design professionals to keep projects running smoothly, minimizing costly change orders and unnecessary rework.

We also have extensive experience working with historic properties and understand the specific requirements of projects in historic districts.

Investigative Engineering in Sioux Falls

Our experienced team at Albertson Engineering has the knowledge and expertise to investigate and analyze existing structures throughout Sioux Falls and the surrounding areas, identifying structural engineering issues and recommending effective repairs. When structural concerns arise, we get to the root of the problem—determining what caused the damage, why it’s occurring, and how it happened. Once we have these answers, we help property owners and contractors find the safest and most cost-effective repair solutions.

We utilize specialized tools to aid in our investigations, including ground-penetrating radar (GPR) to assess underlying conditions, such as locating post-tensioned, pre-tensioned, or conventional reinforcing in concrete members. Additionally, we provide ongoing monitoring of existing structures to help detect and address potential issues before they become costly problems.
