Schneider & Associates combines problem-solving design skills with advanced technologies to help clients build projects cost-effectively. Our engineers find structural solutions to meet the specific needs of our clients – converting a bank headquarters into an emergency communications center that meets LEED standards… incorporating locally available materials to reduce construction delays… or achieving the architect’s vision while resolving lateral load concerns with a combination of cantilevered masonry, steel columns, masonry walls and drag struts. Our engineers have completed numerous projects using BIM, REVIT and other state-of-the-art technologies.

Where Knowledge, Technology and Imagination Converge

  • When construction costs soared, Schneider & Associates re-engineered the Holiday Inn Phoenix using an innovative combination of concrete first floor and wood-framed upper floors. This solution brought the project within budget and allowed the client to build on schedule. < view project profile >
  • The City of Tucson’s MLK Depot Plaza is a ”green” urban renewal project. The mixed-use facility features a six-story tower of 100 residential units, ground-level commercial space and courtyard, plus a two-level below-grade parking garage – all engineered to meet LEED specifications.
  • The $81 million Clark County Detention Center included three buildings totaling 251,000 square feet. Our engineers used pre-cast concrete, which reduced construction costs and expedited the timeline. They also provided a detailed 3-D model of the project for the client, using the latest BIM technology.
  • Phoenix San Man corporate headquarters presented engineering challenges with varying roof elevations, a large circular portico, curving walls and combined use as both office and warehouse. Our solution incorporated steel, wood and masonry materials to attain the architect’s desired aesthetics within budget.
  • Indigo Pointe Apartment Homes is a 72-unit affordable housing project in Phoenix. We used post-tension slabs to improve the quality and finish of the cement foundation and open-web wood trusses to house plumbing, mechanical and electrical, reducing floor-to-floor height and construction costs.
  • The Clean Freak Car Wash features a canopy sail instead of a roof. The engineers at Schneider & Associates produced the fabric look the client wanted by using a series of trusses and X-braces to create a roof diaphragm. They also redesigned the steel tube frames so they could be manufactured locally, saving time and expense.
