The Process

01We receive your consultation request and reach out to you within 12 hours.
02We set up a meeting with you and any other parties to discuss the problem and the intent.
03We analyze the problem, visit the site if needed, then deliver what you need to start building.
04We monitor and quickly clarify issues during construction to ensure everything is built right and on schedule.

We Deliver

01Stamped permit drawings & details ready for construction, sealed analysis & investigation reports.
02Specifications based on project complexity.
03Resilience & code compliance.
04Cooperation — when the contractor has the better solution, we welcome it, check it, and get behind it.

What We Offer

Full-Spectrum
Structural Services

From concept to construction and everything in between — brought to every project with rigorous technical expertise and a straightforward process.

01

New Structural Design

Design Services

We provide complete structural designs for new construction across many building types and scales — from single-family residences to multi-story commercial developments. Our designs are efficient, constructable, and coordinated with the project team. We also peer review other engineers' work.

Commercial buildings
Foundation design
Peer review
02

Existing Structures

Retrofit & Repair

Older buildings require a different kind of expertise — one that balances structural performance with construction reality. We specialize in evaluating, designing, and documenting modifications to existing structures of all types and eras.

Renovations and additions
Adaptive reuse
Structural strengthening
03

Forensics

Investigation & Reporting

When something goes wrong — or you need to know if it might — we investigate. Our forensic engineering work combines field observation, structural analysis, and clear documentation to get to the root of the problem and chart a path forward.

Structural investigations
Failure analysis
Sealed engineering reports
Property condition assessments
04

Construction Administration

Field & Review Services

The job isn't done when the drawings are issued. We stay engaged through construction to review submittals, respond to RFIs, observe field conditions, and resolve issues quickly — keeping your project on schedule.

About Us

Engineering
Grounded
in Care.

Lattice Engineering was built for clients who need reliable engineering — developers, architects, contractors, and property owners who need real answers, delivered clearly, without the runaround.

Ayan Ali, P.E.

Founder & Principal Engineer · Austin, Texas

Ayan founded Lattice having an eye for design and a commitment to exceeding the client's expectations. He brings several years of experience in the commercial industry engineering residential to mid-rise steel and concrete structures with unique challenges, finding innovative approaches while tying off to proven design practices.

What sets Ayan apart is his collaborative instinct. He'll pick up the phone to talk through the design approach, sequencing, and constructability with contractors, making sure the solution is not just structurally sound, but practical and cost-effective to build.

These values are ingrained in every project and product we produce at Lattice and we strive to keep our architects, contractors, and owners a priority.
