1. STRUCTURAL DESIGN: Mr. John L. Elam, P.E. is the EOR for the design and the construction of the structural portion of many SEI construction projects for the past 35 years, including many foreign projects. We have StruCAD*3D and ETABS structural design programs in-house, to analyze rigid frame structural designs. We have developed a library of structural construction details for use in preparation of structural contract documents. John Elam is the EOR for seismic design projects in the central continental U.S., the offshore Pacific coastal, and the western India active seismic regions. Mr. Elam is familiar with the building code source documents, The National Earthquake Hazard Reduction Program (NEHRP) Recommended Provisions for Seismic Regulations for New Buildings and Other Structures, as well as building codes from The Building Officials and Code Administrators (BOCA) and The Uniform Building Code (UBC). These projects have been for NASA, USPS, NIMA, GSA, the Corps of Engineers, USAF, U S Navy, Institutional clients, and commercial clients. These projects have been designed to be located in Arctic, Desert, Coastal, Earthquake, High Altitude, Monsoon, and Hurricane Prone areas.

2. CIVIL DESIGN: Mr. John L. Elam, P.E. is the EOR for the design and the construction of the civil portions of many SEI projects during the past 35 years, including many foreign projects.

3.

Murillo Engineering has been our consultant on several Corps of Engineers (CESWF), USAF Lackland AFB, and NASA-JSC projects.

5. INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE DESIGN: Because interior design is an integral part of any project (either new or remodeling), we provide either in-house staff or outside consultants with experience in space planning, flow charts, programming, color coordination, custom millwork, furniture layout, furniture selection and interior detailing. Beth Allen-Brock will be responsible for the selection of the furniture, fixtures and equipment of this facility. Ms. Brock has extensive experience with the requirements for U.S. Government projects.
