Structural Engineering Jobs
Structural engineering is the science and art of applying engineering principles to the design and construction of structures. Structural engineering takes into account the strength and stability of a built structure as well as its safety, durability, and sustainability. A Structural Engineer's job is to identify an overall design strategy, analyze & evaluate the proposed design, develop plans and details, check the calculations & structuring techniques, review designs for cost effectiveness and environmental impact, and oversee construction projects.
Structural Engineers are involved in a wide variety of projects, from commercial buildings like skyscrapers to bridges and transportation systems. They are experts in understanding the static forces and dynamic forces that impact a structure's performance over time. This knowledge allows them to identify potential failure points in a design before a project proceeds - ensuring all designs are safe, efficient, and appropriate for the intended purpose.
Here’s some projects that our expert Structural Engineers made real:
- Performing calculations for structures like RSJ calculation, analysis, beams etc.
- Designing structures that uses big timber rafters & log homes or creating site plan & foundation plan for post frame buildings
- Incorporating static & strength physics into designs
- Designing Antenna mount with galvanized square tubing
- Calculating joints of I-Beam section & drafting drawings & reports
- Preparing complete calculation sheets with full structure analysis
Structural Engineering plays an essential role in any large scale construction project. Freelancer.com provides access to talented, experienced engineers who can carry out tasks such as designing a new skyscraper, creating plan drawings/sketches - ensuring accuracy and best practices at every step of the process. If you need assistance with your structural engineering project or require an experienced team to quickly review your designs, contact us today and let’s discuss how we can make it real!

I need a Professional Engineer registered in Alberta to take full responsibility for the structural design of a new industrial-use steel building. Your scope begins with load calculations—live load, dead load and significant equipment loads—and ends with permit-ready, PE-stamped drawings and a supporting calculation package. All analysis and detailing must satisfy the latest National Building Code of Canada, the current Alberta Building Code and any applicable provincial or municipal bylaws, along with the usual CSA S16 / S136 steel provisions. Please use whichever mainstream structural tools you are most comfortable with (STAAD, SAP2000, ETABS, Tekla Structures, etc.), provided the final files are reproducible if the authority requests them. Acceptance criteria • Signed...
I already have a complete steel structure modeled in Tekla and now need the same model reproduced in SAP2000 so I can run a fresh global analysis and member design there. Once the steel frame is fully validated, I also want the entire foundation system built and designed in either ETABS or SAFE—whichever you find more efficient for footings, slabs and tie beams. You will start from the native Tekla file (or IFC if you prefer) that I will provide, carry over every member, section size and connection point, and recreate the load cases and combinations so that reactions and deflections remain consistent. After the superstructure is confirmed, import those reactions into a new ETABS/SAFE model, apply realistic soil springs and complete the full foundation design. Deliverables • SA...
