Structural Engineering
From the moment we step foot into a building to the time we leave, structural engineering shapes our sense of purpose and safety. Whether we work, reside, or simply navigate through these structures, their presence is intertwined with ours. The best structural engineers do far more than make a building stable, they actively engage in the design and build processes to generate value that impacts a structure’s vision, cost, and legacy.
Kimley-Horn commits to exceptional outcomes. We go beyond traditional structural engineering to align with architects and build partners to help realize client goals and meet project needs. Our public and private experience, passion to design, and drive to innovate elevate your projects and their surrounding communities. Our nationwide expertise spans project delivery methods and project conditions.

Kimley-Horn Structural Sustainability in Action
Materials Consultation
Kimley-Horn structural engineers are versed in specifying locally sourced, high-strength, recycled, and low-carbon alternative materials. We welcome exploration of material options and their impact on project goals.
High-Performance Design
Efficient framing schemes using high-strength materials reduce the quantity of materials needed and carbon footprint. Our engineers can also design for deconstruction and reuse, maximizing the potential life cycle of structural materials.
Kimley-Horn's expertise, responsiveness, and proactive approach demonstrates their deep understanding of our big picture needs. Kimley-Horn has been one of the most detail-oriented firms we have worked with and is always looking out for the best interest of the University, which builds strong long-term partnerships well after project completion.
