Structural Engineering Support for Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Applications

Structural Engineering Support for Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Applications

Strut E&I, Inc. specializes in structural design and assessment services tailored specifically for solar energy projects. We ensure that both existing buildings and new solar farm developments are structurally sound, code-compliant, and optimized for long-term performance and safety.

Our engineering team conducts thorough evaluations of existing building’s rooftop capacity for solar PV installations and designs robust structural systems for ground-mounted solar farms with an emphasis on efficiency, durability, and regulatory compliance.

Whether integrating solar arrays onto commercial rooftops or designing foundations for utility-scale solar installations, we apply a precise, methodical approach grounded in current industry standards.

Services Offered

  • Structural assessments for rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) installations
  • Design verification and evaluation of solar PV retrofits on existing structures
  • Wind uplift analysis for solar panel mounting systems
  • Structural design of ground-mounted solar farm infrastructure
  • Foundation design and layout optimization for solar farm projects
  • Recommendations for necessary structural reinforcements and upgrades
  • Preparation of permit-ready structural reports, drawings, and calculations

Industries Served

  • Commercial & industrial facilities
  • Educational institutions
  • Government & municipal buildings
  • Solar developers and EPC firms
  • Residential multi-family properties

Use Case / Past Projects

  • Evaluation of an aging commercial building’s roof to determine feasibility for solar panel installation, including retrofitting strategies.

  • Structural design and foundation layout for a multi-acre solar farm, factoring in wind, soil, and environmental loading conditions.

  • Code-compliant assessment and stamped documentation for a public school installing rooftop solar to meet renewable energy goals.
