Scope of work
Site development · Design
When an engineering firm builds its own office, it hires the contractor it would stake its professional judgment on. For Markosky Engineering, Fort provided the site development and design for an 11,000 square foot office building in Ligonier, a headquarters for a firm that reviews work like Fort’s for a living.
The challenge
The most technical client there is
An engineering firm scrutinizes a site plan and a building design the way other clients never could. Every grading decision, every structural choice, and every drawing would be read by professionals qualified to challenge it, on a project that would carry their own name on the door.
Our approach
Work that survives an engineer’s review
Fort developed the site and the design to the standard the client’s own profession demands, resolving questions on paper with a client capable of checking the math. It is the kind of engagement that either validates a builder’s in-house technical depth or exposes its absence.
The outcome
An engineer’s choice
The office was completed in 2017 and stands as one of the quieter endorsements in Fort’s portfolio: an engineering firm chose Fort to deliver its own building. It joins the YMCA expansion and McMaster mixed-use building in the Pennsylvania work where Fort’s model was built.
