Senaltek is a team of engineers drawn to the complex and the unconventional. Structural engineering is our foundation — but we work across every discipline, from civil and project management to forensic investigation and construction support.
We're a multi-disciplinary engineering team with structural at our core and the breadth to handle what comes next. We work across steel, concrete, timber, and modular systems — and across commercial, industrial, infrastructure, and forensic disciplines. Our clients include contractors, architects, building owners, insurers, and legal teams. We take on complex, unconventional, and demanding projects — and we're direct about what we can and can't do. If a project is outside our wheelhouse, we'll tell you. Founded with a commitment to solving the structural problems others step away from, Senaltek has grown from a Calgary-based firm into a multi-office practice serving Western Canada and Ontario.
Senaltek’s diverse design experience includes working with property managers, condo boards, constructors and architects to design, modify, inspect and improve multi-family buildings, and places of work and business. We leverage deep expertise in wood, steel, and concrete structures to optimize every design for constructability and long-term performance. Whether managing a small-scale renovation or a multi-discipline multi-unit commercial project, our goal is to streamline the engineering process and provide clarity for our clients at every stage.
Senaltek’s power and industrial expertise includes collaborating with plant managers, client internal engineers, heavy industry operators, and specialty fabricators to engineer, modify, inspect, and optimize industrial facilities and process systems in the traditional and renewable energy spaces. We leverage deep expertise in heavy structural steel, dynamic equipment foundations, and modular design to ensure constructability and long-term durability. Whether executing a targeted structural repair during a tight facility shutdown or managing a multi-discipline expansion, Senaltek has positioned itself as a valuable partner in the power and industrial sector.
Senaltek’s contribution to community includes collaborating with municipal leaders, landscape architects, community groups, and public artists to design, inspect, and enhance civic infrastructure and shared public spaces. We leverage our structural engineering expertise to design durable pathways, footbridges, and support complex public art installations that blend seamlessly into the community fabric while ensuring absolute public safety. Whether engineering a small-scale park feature or managing a multi-discipline municipal infrastructure asset, our goal is to streamline the engineering process and offer our years of experience to enhance technical outcomes for our clients.
Senaltek’s construction support and field services place us on integrated teams with general contractors, project managers, site superintendents, and developers to review, inspect, and problem-solve during active construction phases. We supply experienced personnel with the required skills to ensure construction quality and compliance with design documents. Whether conducting a routine structural site inspection or engineering a critical field modification on the fly, our goal is to streamline the construction process and provide clear, actionable direction to keep projects moving safely forward on site.
Senaltek’s lifecycle and restoration expertise includes collaborating with building owners, asset managers, facility directors, and restoration contractors to assess, rehabilitate, and extend the life of existing structures. We leverage deep expertise in building condition assessments, concrete repair, and structural forensics to diagnose underlying issues and design durable remediation strategies. Whether managing a routine building envelope repair or engineering a complex structural rehabilitation for a historic landmark, our goal is to streamline the restoration process and provide asset owners with the clear technical data needed to ensure the structures are fit for occupancy for years to come.
Senaltek’s forensics and expert opinion services include collaborating with insurance adjusters, legal counsel, risk managers, and property owners to investigate structural failures, assess damage, and determine root causes. We have extensive experience in structural diagnostics, failure analysis, and building code compliance reviews to provide objective, scientifically backed assessments. Whether evaluating localized structural damage following an isolated incident or delivering comprehensive expert opinions for complex legal and insurance claims, our goal is to streamline the investigative process and provide solid technical clarity and expert opinions.
Senaltek’s infrastructure and public works expertise includes collaborating with municipal engineers, public works departments, utility providers, and construction contractors to design, inspect, and rehabilitate critical civic assets. We draw on our experience in culverts, bridges, retaining walls, utility structures, and deep foundation systems to ensure long-term durability, regulatory compliance, and public safety. Whether executing a routine building assessment on a municipal asset or managing a multi-discipline utility infrastructure upgrade, our goal is to streamline the engineering process and deliver sustainable, technically sound solutions that support the needs of growing communities.
Senaltek has always relished the challenges that come with analyzing unique and unusual structures. Our clients in this space include innovative developers, specialty fabricators, artists, and visionary property owners. Usually requiring a departure from traditional engineering analysis we come up with out of the box solutions to analyze unique structural forms and ensure the spirit of the code is applied and structural integrity is confirmed. Whether engineering a highly customized, small-scale structural feature or performing a finite element analysis on an underground composite dome structure, our goal is to streamline the engineering process and turn complex, unconventional ideas into safe, buildable realities.
