Skyline Engineering is a Victoria based structural engineering firm. Before starting Skyline Engineering in 2015, our three founding partners had amassed over 60 years’ combined experience providing structural engineering services in Victoria. Our team is now 14 strong and still growing.

To us, superior client service means more than providing efficient structural solutions. It means being available to our clients to provide sound structural advice during the preliminary design stage, with continued prompt service throughout the life of the project. With three senior partners, Skyline Engineering is able to respond quickly to all of our clients and will draw upon each individual’s extensive experience to ensure our structural designs best meet the needs of the particular project and client. By providing this level of service, we will continue to develop and strengthen long term relationships with our clients.

Our founding partners have vast structural design experience in multi-storey residential, commercial, institutional, educational, healthcare, marine, and recreation projects. When designing projects, the team combines their engineering expertise in the use of conventional and heavy timber wood frame, reinforced concrete, and steel to create efficient and unique structural designs. We work collaboratively with architects and designers to always ensure that structural function complements the architectural form.

Our Professional Engineers currently hold registration in B.C. and Alberta and are all LEED accredited. We have experience with the integrated design process and are well versed in the needs and requirements of the other members of the consulting team in order to deliver successful LEED projects. Our designs take advantage of current sustainability initiatives and practices; we are committed to reducing the environmental impact of construction and consider long-term functionality and adaptability in all our designs.
