SGH collaborates with architects, owners, and contractors to find creative solutions for demanding projects. As an integral part of the design team, we explore, develop, and present multiple options and help to select the best solution. We draw on our knowledge, gained through decades of designing and investigating structures and building enclosures, to appropriately balance performance, reliability, and cost. And throughout construction, we roll up our sleeves to anticipate issues, solve problems, and help ensure the design intent is achieved in the completed project. SGH works closely with attorneys, insurance companies, owners, and contractors to identify the causes of structural and building enclosure performance problems. We follow a rigorous, fact-finding approach and develop our findings with credibility that is grounded in our strong design practice. We often lead the investigation effort, working respectfully with the many parties involved in construction projects. As projects evolve, we draw upon our nationally recognized experts in diverse specialties. We communicate our conclusions clearly and objectively. SGH confers with owners, contractors, and architects to understand goals and develop appropriate solutions for rehabilitation projects. We draw upon our combined investigation and design experience to improve the performance and reliability of existing structures and building enclosures. We provide clients with comprehensive options that respect the project's significance and allow the owner to make informed decisions. We address ease of construction in our designs and respond quickly to additional needs during implementation.
