Evan Wyatt Bliss
“S3DA contacted me through LinkedIn and while I am usually skeptical of cold messages, I was in need of an MEP engineer so I thought I would give them a shot. After more than a year of working on several projects with their team, I have found them to be responsive, reasonable with timelines and budgets, and willing to stand behind their work. While there are many good engineers out there, S3DA’s customer service stands out as a valuable resource.”
Chris Cox

I have worked with them on multiple commercial and residential projects and they always deliver in a timely manner and are priced very well. I recommend using them on any project. Their drawings are methodical and easy to understand, which makes the job easier for everyone!

MEPF and Structural Design for Ambulatory Surgery Center, Clayton, NC.

S3DA designed and engineered a new ground-up 6,000 SF Ambulatory Surgery Center for International Council for Quality Care in Clayton, NC. The Scope was MEPF and Structural Engineering. S3DA managed to come up with creative solutions to make the structure and MEP design more cost-efficient, through continuous communication with the architectural firm, Studio Design Group Architects, and the GC. In the end, in order to help the GC and the Developer to get more insight on the costs, we provided BOQ considering the materials available in the local market. The aesthetic look was another concern to the Developer and the Architect. They wanted to avoid any rooftop units (HVAC), and there was no approval from the City to place them on the ground. Eventually, mechanical screens were considered to reach the client’s satisfaction:

Structural and MEP Design for Marcelli Residence in Charleston, SC

Marcelli residence – Single-family detached homes in SC

LOT SIZE: 48000 sqft
CONSTRUCTION TYPE: V-B
We take pride in helping homeowners develop a cost-efficient structural and MEP design. The building designed blockwork on the first floor and wooden frame for floors above. The biggest challenge for this residential design project was the project schedule.
The project schedule allowed only 3 months from the start of design to complete construction package for getting city permission. Yet, the project was completed under budget and one month ahead of schedule due to an intense coordinated team-work in the design and planning stages between the teams. The Full package was processed to pull a permit from the City by the Client’s contractor.
