The building and structural division at
Johnson Engineering Consultants has been a major
component of this company for years. We provide building code
compliance review and structural engineering services for
residential, commercial, municipal and agricultural projects. Our
staff of professionals are dedicated to using the client's concepts,
ideas and ultimate goals to provide the best possible solution and
outcome.
Johnson Engineering
Consultants is certified as a design firm through the Ontario
Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing (MAH). Bill 124 modifies
the Ontario Building Code and requires that design firms become
certified through the MAH for different Ontario Building Code (OBC)
specialties. The Ontario Building Code is a Provincial Regulation
empowered by the Ontario Building Code Act. As such, both the Act and the
Regulation (the Ontario Building Code) are available on the
www.e-laws.gov.on.ca website. They keep moving them around so our
link may not work, but last we checked, the Regulation (the Ontario
Building Code) was available at
http://www.e-laws.gov.on.ca/html/regs/english/elaws_regs_060350_e.htm
There
has been growing interest in installing solar panels, both
photovoltaic and water heating systems, on roof tops in Ontario since
the Feed-in-tariff (FIT) program was announced by the Ontario Power
Authority in September 2009. New buildings that are being proposed
for construction can easily and inexpensively have their structural
system designed to accommodate the weight (dead load) of these solar
energy systems, but at the same time, it is rarely true for existing
buildings. We've written a pdf that helps explain the various
structural concerns, you can download it here.
Our
projects have included steel, concrete, masonry and wood construction
and are designed to comply with the Ontario Building
Code and Ontario Fire Code. We have been involved with the following,
but not are limited to, structural design and analysis projects:
Residential - new, basements, garage sheds
(including shallow foundations), additions, and renovations
Commercial - new, additions, and renovations
Industrial - building additions, catwalks,
mezzanines, conveyors, jib cranes, racking systems and lift supports
Agricultural - barns, sheds, storage tanks,
and silos
Municipal - concrete culverts, bridges and
piers, road design and reconstruction
