Mechanical & Structural Engineer Needed

Job ID: 38235751

Budget: $20 – $100 USD

Below is a scope of work that we have which we need your cost and timeline to complete.

For this project, the manufacturer does not have testing of their systems, and we will qualify them through engineering analysis of the structural elements. Any evaluation of the air or water resistance, or impact resistance is outside of the scope of the evaluation. The following items need to be analyzed:

1.Glass capacity (ASTM E1300)
2.Glazing methods (use 20 psi silicone design strength if wet glazed)
3.Unsupported members such as mullions, astragals, TDLs, etc. shall be evaluated as beams based on their section properties
4.Locking/hinging hardware components shall be evaluated for the load they are subjected to
5.Anchors and their layout shall be adequate to transfer the load to the structure

Examples are attached of previously completed similar projects for this customer.
