during design At Uzun & Case we believe that design is integration, and that the success of our solutions should be judged by how well the structural needs of the project are integrated with its architectural, construction and budgetary requirements. In order to achieve this, our principals personally guide the conceptual design of a project, putting forth and testing multiple proposals in order to ensure that the most appropriate structural solution is arrived at. Periodic reviews by principals as the design develops makes certain that the integrity of the project is maintained. during construction document production In the construction documents phase of the project, as in all others, we are guided by the principle that our work is teamwork. We understand the critical need to work closely with other team participants in order to produce designs which are reflective of each party’s concerns. Therefore our project engineers are charged with anticipating and resolving coordination issues as early as possible in order to minimize problems which could affect the project’s progress. Appropriate staffing of our projects and a thorough quality control program ensure high quality construction documents. during construction We see the construction phase of a project as an extension of its design phase. Therefore it is our policy for the design engineer to stay with a project through construction. This enables us to better serve our clients by ensuring continuity of design intent and responding quickly to construction issues. Our numerous contractor references testify to the quality of our construction phase services. We pride ourselves in working together with contractors to ensure the success of the project. This includes providing timely responses to questions, quickly reviewing shop drawings, and responding creatively to field problems.
