Designing structures in heavy snowfall regions can be very tricky business. Elevation, prevailing winds, sun exposure and annual snowfall accumulations are to name but a few of the factors that must be well thought out during the conceptual design phase of a project prior to construction.

Here at Melissa A. McKay Engineering, Whistler, we provide structural engineering services for new home construction, existing home renovations, the analysis of new and/or existing buildings with snow shed issues, and the evaluation of snow related building envelope decay (i.e. rot, mould).

Please read on and explore in further depth how our services may be of interest to you and your built environment needs.
