DESIGN OF REPAIRS  
 
 
Buildings are damaged every day in many ways: impacts from vehicles, fires, decay, and from exposure to hurricanes and other natural events, just to name a few. Repairing these structures are challenging particularly to the Structural Engineer that does not have adequate experience in understanding the unique challenges of this type of design. Considerations for a repair scheme are much different than that for a new design. Axiom Engineering has considerable experience in design of repairs, and understands the unique challenges. These include:

> Determine the extent of damage and the necessary scope of repairs.
> Developing a design scheme that is constructible and ties in properly with the undamaged portion of the structure.
> Assessing ancillary issues such as code upgrade requirements.
> Coordinating restoration of electrical, mechanical and HVAC Systems.
