Engineered solutions that meet your needs
Grote Engineering and Consulting is a Minnesota and Wisconsin based mechanical and structural engineering services provider capable of helping you throughout the design build process to ultimately obtain your building permit in a timely manner.
Modeling Services
Depending upon the application, either RISA or SkyCiv modeling software is used to analyze your structure. A dimensionally correct model is developed and using the current building codes loading applied. Finite Element Analysis will be used to optimize the design.
Engineering Services
Windows and doors keep getting larger and larger. While this is aesthetically pleasing to the eye, they offer very little structural integrity for high winds. To ensure your building does not fall victim to the next tornado the building permit process requires your walls to be adequately braced. Engineering services that are typically needed include:
- Wall bracing analysis and design,
- Foundation / truss strapping analysis and design,
- Tall wall analysis and design,
- Wind shear analysis and design,
- Uplift analysis and design,
- Steel beam analysis and design,
- Post frame construction analysis and design
Existing Structure Investigations
Whether a tree fell on your roof, you need to add a large door to your pole shed or your trusses sat out in the weather for a year, structural investigations are an offered service.
