MVC Inc.

Connection Design 
Evidence-Based Structural Assessments

About MVC Inc.

MVC Inc. is a structural engineering practice specializing in steel connection design and structural investigations.

We support steel fabricators and project teams by delivering clear, buildable connection designs that translate directly into detailing, fabrication, and construction. Our focus is on defining connection intent with precision—reducing ambiguity and ensuring alignment from design through execution.

In parallel, we investigate performance issues in existing structures, assessing observed conditions and determining root causes. Our work results in clear, defensible engineering conclusions that support effective repair and remediation strategies.

Our approach is grounded in practical field experience, with a consistent emphasis on constructability, clarity, and execution.

Who We Work With
  • ​​Steel fabricators and detailers
     

  • Property owners and contractors
     

  • Insurers and adjusters
     

  • Legal counsel requiring technical clarity

Forensic Engineering Services

Things happen.

When they do, facts matter.

MVC Inc. delivers independent engineering assessments to determine what happened and why — based on evidence, analysis, and professional engineering judgment.

We investigate:
 

  • Envelope failure

  • Water intrusion

  • Structural distress

  • Structural failure

  • Connection failures

  • Construction deficiencies

  • OBC compliance

03

Conclude & Report

Defensible findings

At MVC Inc., our opinions are formed through a structured, evidence-based process.

We document what can be observed, assess all reasonable explanations, and rule out those that do not align with the evidence. The explanation that remains — most consistent with the facts — forms our conclusion.

Our findings are clear, impartial, and technically defensible.

Structural Design Services

Buildable by design.

Practical engineering that translates clearly from drawings to construction.

We provide structural and specialty design focused on practical, buildable solutions. Our work includes steel connection design and structural modifications — from temporary shoring and beam infills to wall removals and additions.

Structural Steel Connection Design

A structured workflow within FERUM™ — from concept to fabrication. Each stage builds toward clear, coordinated connections.

Workflow

Asset 3.png

FERUM™ defines connections at the node level — eliminating ambiguity across the entire workflow. All stages are tracked and coordinated in one shared system.


Fewer RFIs. Faster coordination. Cleaner fabrication.

Classified

LOD 300

Geometry, loading, and member relationships are established.

Connections are classified and structural complexity is measured.

Designed

LOD 350

Connections are designed using advanced structural analysis and prepared for detailing.

Each connection is uploaded to a shared system, where project collaborators can view and coordinate.

Modelled

LOD 400

Detailers retrieve design references and model connections in preparation for fabrication and installation.
