Atkinson-Noland & Associates, Inc. has provided structural engineering services including nondestructive testing and evaluation for federal, state, and private organizations since its founding in 1975. Atkinson-Noland & Associates offers services for masonry preservation from the planning phase through to the production of design documents and construction administration. Our staff includes specialists trained in evaluation and analysis from engineering and architectural backgrounds. Atkinson-Noland & Associates' structural evaluation services include detailed condition surveys, in-place structural testing, and laboratory material testing. Knowledge of masonry material properties allows our structural engineers to use the strength of the masonry in analysis and design, thus sparing owners the expense of unnecessary structural additions. Our approach to preservation is to use a detailed understanding of the materials and construction to offer solutions that protect historic structures while using their inherent strength to meet design objectives.
