Ehlert Bryan DC’s engineers are trained in the best practices for designing and specifying GREEN buildings to meet or exceed the project requirements. The most sustainable structures are those which reuse existing buildings, and EBDC is proud of our award-winning building conversions, renovations and expansions. In addition, our economized structural designs reduce excess materials and utilize recycled content and renewable lumber resources.

EBDC helps to reduce environmental impacts from construction by using locally sourced materials, recycled content and low VOCs. We use state-of-the art analysis software to economize structural material volume, promote renewable resources and emerging sustainable technologies like engineered composite heavy timber (CLT, GLU-LAM), support green roofs / photovoltaic solar arrays / storm water retention, and limit embodied carbon in specified concrete mix designs and through careful selection of other low-carbon structural buildings materials.
