Our Services
3D Analysis and Design
KDA’s talented engineering team uses our extensive experience and advanced software capabilities to design efficiently and accurately, providing optimized solutions. Our goal is to help clients reduce costs and accelerate project delivery.
Lateral Load Analysis
Combining our engineering expertise with powerful analytical tools enables us to precisely design and detail structures for wind, seismic, and other lateral forces, delivering efficient, and optimized structural solutions. We understand how loads are transferred through the structure, and are experienced designing moment-resisting frames, shear walls, braced frames and diaphragms.
Finite Element Analysis (FEA)
We use advanced FEA software and the latest technologies to provide accurate and reliable results. Our team offers comprehensive and cost-effective solutions specifically tailored to each project.
Failure Investigations
​KDA is experienced with structural failure investigations, including diagnosing the causes of structural distress and failure and extent of damage. Our engineers conduct detailed site reviews and assessments, provide comprehensive investigation reports, and design remedial repairs to restore the structure.
Thermal Analysis
We analyze thermal effects to examine how temperature changes influence structures. Our engineering team uses detailed analysis methods to evaluate thermal expansion, contraction, and restraint effects, ensuring structural systems are designed to accommodate thermal movements and stresses, and maintain long-term performance.
Code Compliance Review
KDA provides thorough structural compliance reviews to ensure alignment with relevant codes and standards. By identifying issues early, we help clients avoid costly delays and maintain smooth progress through structural design, approval, and construction.
Expert Opinion
Reports
Our team provides in-depth peer reviews, failure investigations, and expert opinion reports to determine the root causes of structural or performance issues. With extensive technical expertise in structural engineering, we offer objective, third-party assessments that clarify contributing factors and support effective resolutions. Whether for insurance, litigation, or quality assurance purposes, our investigations are thorough, evidence-based, and case-specific.
Sustainability & Resilience
KDA promotes sustainability by incorporating environmentally responsible practices into our designs, not only reducing the environmental impact and waste during construction, but also creating long-standing, durable structures that balance performance with environmentally friendly stewardship.
​
We understand the importance of durability and long-term performance. By carefully assessing corrosion constraints and environmental factors, our robust design solutions give clients confidence in the longevity and resilience of their structures, reducing maintenance and enhancing long-term value.
​
Our focus on creating durable, long-lasting structures further enhances sustainability, allowing a more resilient and environmentally responsible future.
