The 4 Types of Engineering We Offer

Most buildings don’t need an engineer in the abstract, but they will need the correct kind of engineering at the right moment. Here at Wharry Engineering, we make that decision easier by offering multiple types of engineering services to our clients.

In this month’s blog, we’re highlighting our four core engineering services and each one supports safer buildings, clearer documentation, and smarter long-term decisions.

Civil Engineering

Civil engineering comes into play when existing conditions, code requirements, and real-world execution need to line up. Wharry’s civil engineering support can include augmentation/repair for existing buildings, code compliance assessments, quality control, and architectural oversight.

Structural Engineering

Structural engineering is the backbone work, so analyzing existing structures, creating plans/specs, and providing code compliance recommendations Is what it’s all about. This is especially important when buildings have seen fire or heavy water.

Forensic Engineering

Forensic engineering is for the moments where the problems are unknown at first, so that’s all about insurance damage assessments, investigations into structural/material failures, and even expert witness testimony when documentation needs to hold up under scrutiny.

Rehabilitation Engineering

After disasters or major building damage, rehabilitation engineering helps turn uncertainty into action. Wharry’s rehabilitation engineering services include damage analysis, budget estimation, building redesign, and structural integrity verification, so you can prioritize repairs and rebuild with confidence.

Here’s a good short review of the engineering services we offer:

• Civil engineering: site and compliance-focused support
• Structural engineering: strength, framing, and system performance
• Forensic engineering: failure investigation + insurance documentation
• Rehabilitation engineering: recovery plans after major damage
