St. Lucy’s Church

KSingh has been retained to provide structural engineering for this church expansion project. The church consisted of large steel columns supporting wide span wood trusses. The new opening for the addition was placed in between two main steel columns. The opening required a design of a new steel beam to carry the exterior brick loading of the building. New steel posts were added to support the steel beam and were embedded into the wall construction. Aesthetics of the existing building were matched to provide a seamless integration of the addition.
