Peer Review & Compliance
An independent second read of the structural design — code compliance, load path, constructability and documentation quality.

- Applies to
- Existing buildings
- Basis
- ACI 318 · ASCE 7
Why it matters
By the time a structural problem is found in construction, it is a schedule event. An independent review before issue is the cheapest risk reduction available on a project.
Who this is for
- Owners and developers managing structural risk
- Design teams seeking an independent check
- Lenders and insurers requiring third-party review
What the work covers
- Independent review of structural drawings and calculations
- Code compliance and load-path continuity check
- Review of analysis assumptions and modelling
- Constructability and detailing review
- Documentation completeness and coordination review
- Written comment log with resolution tracking
Scope the review
Depth agreed up front — full review, targeted systems, or a specific concern.
Review
Drawings, calculations and models read independently against the governing code.
Comment
Findings issued as a structured comment log, prioritized by structural consequence.
Close out
Responses reviewed and comments tracked to closure so the record is complete.
What you receive
- Independent review report
- Prioritized comment log
- Resolution tracking through close-out
Considerations
- A peer review examines the design as submitted; it does not transfer engineer-of-record responsibility.
- Review depth and fee scale with the size and complexity of the set.
- Comments are written to be resolved, not to assign blame.
