Degenkolb Engineers is completing its 62nd year of providing consulting structural engineering services in the design and construction industry. While the primary efforts have focused on the design of new structures and on seismic strengthening and rehabilitation, other important services include seismic evaluation, development of seismic hazard reduction programs, peer reviews, consultation and design of underpinning and shoring for deep excavations, as well as major participation in the development of seismic evaluation and rehabilitation standards. These services have been provided to private industry and business, universities, hospitals, governmental agencies, the insurance industry, and contractors, often, but not always, working with an architect. The firm is now in its fourth generation of leadership, headed by Chris D. Poland, President, CEO and Chairman of the Board. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
