We Are The Next Generation of Structural Engineering

who we are


Delivering world-class projects isn’t enough. Doing this with consideration for your triple bottom line – people, planet and profits is what sets us apart. 

We’re pretty passionate about how we do things around here – we like to work with you, not for you, and with our diverse and mega-talented team, we deliver sustainable, thoughtful and forward-thinking projects. Our ideas and designs are steeped in pragmatism and we start by asking the right questions. We compromise. We focus on getting jobs across the line and incremental improvement.

With decades of experience under our belt, we’re brimming with industry-leading solutions to improve building efficiency, form and function, while always keeping cost front of mind.

Btw, we’ve also been told that we’re an 11 out of 10 to work with and that we just “get it”. Plus there’s dogs.

mission and values


We are the next generation of structural engineers. We focus on diversity and delivering industry-leading work, but aren’t boring, clunky or hard to work with. We don’t take ourselves too seriously… just the work we do.

We have an unquenchable thirst for personal, professional, and company excellence that underpins our entire ethos.  We are unwavering in our pursuit of quality, and hold ourselves accountable to the highest standard of design. We believe that to deliver innovative work, we have to create a seat at the table for traditionally under-represented voices to bring unique ideas, strengths and perspectives. We check the egos at the door to work collaboratively – we know that our work is the triumph of true teamwork. We believe that great design shouldn’t compromise the planet, and aim to embed sustainability into everything we do. We set a new standard for what it means to be a structural engineering firm.

our services


At ASPECT, we pride ourselves on our understanding of the full project design, production, and construction processes. We can help explore the nuances of specific materiality (such as mass timber) and fabrication, while continuing to support the project no matter where the design takes us.

We’re happy to take on various roles and get involved even earlier in a project process, so that we can help avoid “rework” (thus, saving our clients time and money).

our design philosophy


Every project centers around innovative design, robust engineering and creating value for our clients.

We leverage our wealth of experience to provide engineering solutions that improve building performance, aesthetics, form, efficiency and cost.
