Our Firm
Creating lasting solutions that extend the service life of buildings or structures is at the heart of our business.
WDP & Associates is a consulting engineering firm founded in 1995 providing building envelope consulting, structural engineering, façade investigation and repair, geotechnical engineering, material testing, and special inspections services. WDP specializes in solving problems in existing structures. Common concerns include structural distress, material defects, building envelope failures, and geotechnical-related issues. Our expertise in determining the causes, effects, and remedies for these problems has resulted in a growing business preventing those same problems on new construction. To ensure that construction is delivered as designed, we also provide envelope commissioning and construction testing & inspection services.
Our History
When the founding Principals established the firm in 1995, the services encompassed forensic structural engineering, building envelope consulting and testing, façade repairs, geotechnical engineering, construction testing & inspection services and litigation support. On March 30, 2015, the firm was re-named WDP & Associates Consulting Engineers, Inc. (WDP & Associates).
As the firm has grown in size and scope, the passion for problem-solving and helping clients has continued to be the driving force of the business. Our staff resources have grown to approximately 50, located across our offices in Virginia, South Carolina, New York City and Hinton, WV. (WDP & Associates conducts business in New York and North Carolina as WDP Consulting Engineers, PC.)
Today’s demand for high-performing, energy-efficient buildings and the re-use or re-purposing of existing buildings and structures has broadened our expertise to include energy, thermal and moisture analysis of wall assemblies; building enclosure commissioning; architectural testing; and design/build repair strategies.
We take great pride in our strong track record of successful projects and our high level of repeat business from clients, as well as their referrals for new business.
