Waiward’s full-service engineering and drafting group works closely with the fabrication group to provide an integrated value-added model that separates Waiward in an increasingly competitive marketplace.

When introduced at the onset of project planning, Waiward’s full-service engineering and drafting division adds significant project value, optimizing constructability and lowering project costs while facilitating adherence to project schedules.

Using cutting edge software, leading technology and rigorous standards, our connection design services enable the flow of key information and requirements to fabricators and construction crews.
