CIVIL AND STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR INDUSTRIAL FACILITIES
I provide civil and structural engineering services applied to industrial infrastructure, focused on solving specific technical needs in operating plants and industrial projects at different stages of development.
I work closely with Plant Engineering, Maintenance, and Project teams, providing technical judgment, buildable solutions, and engineering support for decision-making, execution planning, and coordination with construction and operations.
STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING:
Structural engineering services focused on the analysis, design, and adaptation of new and existing industrial structures, considering real operating conditions and applicable codes.
— Structural assessment and verification of existing industrial buildings and structures.
— Structural analysis for capacity evaluation and structural behavior diagnosis.
— Design of steel and reinforced concrete structures.
— Structural reinforcements, upgrades, and modifications.
— Development of technical documentation for construction and execution.
CIVIL ENGINEERING:
Civil engineering services applied to industrial infrastructure, considering operational conditions, safety requirements, and interaction with existing facilities.
— Design and verification of foundations for equipment, machinery, and structures.
— Industrial pavement engineering.
— Special foundations.
— Adaptation and upgrading of existing infrastructure.
— Coordination with process and operations disciplines.
PLAN AND PROJECT SUPPORT:
Technical support for industrial projects, from early engineering stages through execution.
— Technical support to Plant Engineering teams.
— Technical assistance to Maintenance teams.
— Evaluation of technical alternatives and design criteria.
— Technical coordination with construction, operations, and contractors.
— On-site engineering support during execution in industrial environments.
The work approach is based on delivering clear, buildable, and operation-oriented engineering, prioritizing safety, technical feasibility, and production continuity in industrial facilities.
STRUCTURAL PROJECT DEVELOPMENT STAGES
Not all projects require the same level of technical development. The scope of structural engineering is defined based on the project stage, the required level of definition, and the client’s objectives.
At Innova, we approach projects through different stages of development—conceptual, basic, and detailed—using the most appropriate methodologies and tools in each case.
The selected level of development directly impacts the technical scope, timelines, and overall cost of the work.
Preliminary evaluation of structural alternatives, definition of design criteria, and overall structural checks. Oriented toward early project stages and informed decision-making.
CONCEPTUAL ENGINEERING
BASIC ENGINEERING
DETAILED ENGINEERING
Structural sizing and code compliance checks to define the project and assess its technical and economic feasibility.
Complete structural analysis and design, along with construction documentation for bidding, construction, and execution.
The methodologies and tools used—including CAD modeling, BIM, analytical calculations, and specialized software—are defined according to the project scope and may vary in complexity, timelines, and cost.
Each service begins with a technical analysis of the actual structure, considering its specific conditions and requirements.
