Wind Bracing (per TDI/WPI-8 and Local Code)
Wind bracing is a structural system designed to resist lateral forces caused by high winds,especially in hurricane-prone regions like Texas. Without proper bracing, strong winds cancompromise a structure’s integrity—leading to roof uplift, wall collapse, or total structural failure.

Structural Wood Framing
Wood framing is one of the most widely used construction methods for residential homes and light commercial buildings due to its versatility, affordability, and ease of installation. At Norex Engineering, we specialize in designing wood-framed structural systems that are not only cost-effective but also code-compliant and built to last.

Structural Steel Framing
Structural steel framing is the backbone of many industrial, commercial, and multifamily buildings due to its strength, durability, and ability to span large distances without requiring intermediate supports. At Norex Engineering, we provide expert steel design services that meet the structural demands of complex projects while ensuring code compliance and constructability
Beam Sizing
Beam sizing is a critical component of structural engineering that directly affects a building’s safety, performance, and lifespan. At Norex Engineering, we provide precise beam sizing calculations for residential, commercial, and industrial projects—ensuring that your structure remains stable under all expected load conditions.

Opening and Roof Modifications
Making structural changes to a building—such as adding new windows, skylights, doors, or modifying the roofline—requires careful engineering to ensure that safety and stability are not compromised. At Norex Engineering, we provide expert design and analysis services for structural modifications, ensuring all changes are both visually impactful and structurally sound.
Additions, Extensions & Renovations
Expanding or renovating a building involves more than just architectural planning—it requires expert structural engineering to ensure the new work integrates seamlessly with the existing structure. At Norex Engineering, we specialize in engineering support for residential and commercial additions, second-story expansions, garage conversions, and structural remodels.
