Russell and Dawson, established in Sept 1965, is a multi-disciplinary Architecture, Engineering & Construction firm, providing full-spectrum of services across various verticals such as hospitality, residential, commercial, industrial, healthcare, retail, corporate, storage-warehouse, and government projects.
50+ years of experience includes the successful execution of 10,000+ projects, we have created more than 100 million square feet of space with trust and creativity. Our leadership team has extensive expertise in providing Architectural, Engineering and Construction services to all sectors by successfully executing various projects across the northeast states of the USA serving Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maine, Rhode Island, and Vermont.
At Russell and Dawson, structural engineering is as much an art as it is a science. With projects that range from multi-story hotels and business centers to industrial warehouses and government building facilities, Russell and Dawson has successfully provided a full range of engineering design services.
Our services include high-end architectural design development, analysis of the chosen structural system, and preparation of the final design package using the latest technology and resources.
Construction document generated by us shows detailed plans, sections, elevations and details as well as complete technical specifications. We design in accordance with the governing building codes and meet various applicable guidelines such as AISC, ACI, etc. We also provide an analysis of existing buildings and structures for renovation.
What We Do?
Our design approach emphasizes incorporating core structural engineering principles & theoretical design determinants with the industry standards and on-site practices while also ensuring smooth collaboration with other disciplines to build durable structures.
Our structural engineers work with architects, building owners, contractors to design and provide elegant solutions for all projects types, sizes and levels of complexity. From designing over 10000 buildings in five decades and providing structural solutions for major expansion projects, we have travelled a long way in the AEC industry and continually seek the best balance among the demands of form, function and finesse considering sustainability, feasibility, schedule and budget.
Russell and Dawson provides structural engineering services for all types of building structures. Our structural engineers help to design the ‘bones and muscles’ of any building that creates the form and shape of proposed structure i.e. engineering design and modeling for all types of structures (steel, composite, reinforced concrete, pre-stress, post-tensioned, masonry/block), loading (seismic, wind), analysis (continuous beams, rolling load), steel design (beams, torsion, columns) and connections (base plates and bolts). Our structural engineering services allow clients to visualize project structure, establish changes between design and detailed models, and create coordinated model-based designs.
Our experience involves structural BIM projects using Autodesk’ Revit BIM 360 Advance Steel, Robot, Navisworks Manage, Tekla’s Tedds, and Shear wall. We have worked on complex and structurally demanding projects that involved load calculation, roof structure, foundation design, retaining wall design, beam/slab/column/frame design and steel /concrete/ RCC structure design.
MEP Design
Our expert team of engineers at R+D excels in designing energy-efficient and eco-friendly MEP design for our clients across diverse domains. MEPs are the life-lines for any building project hence it becomes important that these are designed with the latest technological advancements with maximum accuracy and utmost care.
We have been providing Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing & Fire Protection Design & Drafting Services to Clients across various verticals and have successfully executed over 10000+ projects with energy efficiency, sustainability and value engineering
Our team of engineers have specific expertise in Engineering Services for hospitality projects where the design complexity of the MEP is higher given the nature of the project and associated standards & compliance. Our MEP engineers are trained on the latest design tools such as AutoDesk, Revit, ArchiCAD as well as BIM tools which give them an edge when it comes to complex coordination & design review. Our familiarity with various industry standard codes such as IPC, ASHRAE, NFPA along with our ability to follow industry specific drafting standards ensures optimum solutions for our clients and assures code-compliant efficient deliveries of all MEP projects.
