Johnston Burkholder Associates is equipped to assist our clients from schematic design through construction. JBA specializes in the structural design and construction administration of buildings and structures located throughout the United States.
Structural Design
Our project engineers use the latest design software to provide quick, safe, and cost-efficient designs for our valued clients. Construction documents are prepared by our engineers and drafting technicians using Revit or AutoCAD, per our client’s needs. To ensure quality, a principal or senior associate oversees every project and is involved from the planning stage through a careful review of the final construction documents.
Franchise Design
JBA has designed many types of national franchise buildings including large-box retail and grocery stores, restaurants and hotels. In addition, we have developed and maintained prototypes for many of those same clients, allowing for consistent designs for all of their buildings nationwide.
Remodel/Expansion
JBA has extensive experience in providing services for building remodels, repairs, renovations and expansions on all scales. Whether it is a substantial building addition, an interior tenant finish, or replacement of roof-supported mechanical equipment, our design team works efficiently with clients to develop solutions based on both the existing conditions and the architectural vision.
Structural Steel Detailing
JBA has the ability to produce structural models and steel shop drawings with TEKLA Structures Building Information Modeling (BIM) software. In-house detailing allows the steel fabricator to work directly with the design engineer to ensure a complete and accurate submittal.
