Turner Engineering

"Turner's approach is to provide leadership on every project. That translates into 'thinking like an owner' as we look at every aspect of the project," says Dan Turner, principal of Turner Engineering. "Can we help the architect see a more detailed version of the big picture? Are we always holding the vision of the building owner in mind-his schedule, his budget? Are we aware of what we're asking the contractor to do?" The "ownership" focus has led Turner Engineering to make a point of hiring experienced engineers with a talent for big-picture thinking. They work closely on every project from start to finish. "You will not find our engineers having to show up on the construction site every day to retrofit design to the issues on the ground," says Turner. "Those issues were accounted for and solved in the design work."
