HIGH
WIND

At Higgins Designs, we specialize in providing high-quality engineering design services tailored for projects in high wind regions. Our team of experienced engineers is dedicated to delivering innovative solutions that ensure the structural integrity and safety of buildings and infrastructure exposed to strong wind loads.

ELEMENTS OF THIS SERVICE

WIND LOAD ANALYSIS

Understanding the wind loads acting on a structure is essential for designing safe and resilient buildings. Our engineers conduct comprehensive wind load analysis using advanced computational methods to accurately assess wind pressures and velocities on structures of varying shapes and sizes.

STRUCTURAL DESIGN FOR WIND RESISTANCE

We offer specialized structural design services focused on enhancing the wind resistance of buildings and infrastructure. Our engineers utilize state-of-the-art analysis techniques to optimize structural systems, including lateral bracing, shear walls, and moment frames, to withstand the effects of high winds and minimize damage.

COMPONENTS & CLADDING DESIGN

Designing the components and cladding of a building to resist wind pressures is crucial for preventing damage and ensuring occupant safety. Our engineers provide expertise in components and cladding design, including selection of materials, detailing of connections, and integration of wind-resistant features to enhance the building's resilience.

ROOF FRAMING & ANCHORAGE

Roofs are particularly susceptible to damage from high winds, posing risks to both occupants and property. Our engineers specialize in roof framing design and anchorage solutions that mitigate wind uplift forces and prevent roof failure, including the design of roof diaphragms, connections, and bracing systems.
