Calculation of loads (dead loads, live loads, seismic, wind, etc.) Selection of the structural system (reinforced concrete, steel, timber, composite, etc.) Structural behavior modeling using specialized software (e.g., ETABS, SAP2000)

Reinforcement drawings, formwork drawings, foundation details, columns, beams, slabs Technical specifications for construction execution

Finding the right balance between safety, cost, and aesthetics Adapting the structure to architectural requirements (large spans, cantilevers, atypical shapes)

Integrating the structure without compromising the architect’s vision Coordination with building services (HVAC, plumbing, electrical)

Responding to contractor requests Verifying compliance of execution with the design documentation
