The new office will specialize in building enclosure engineering, which includes curtain wall design, waterproofing, roofing, building cladding, and forensic engineering.

Dan Delisle, an associate with the building enclosures group, will be based in the new office. Delisle has more than 17 years of experience as a building enclosure consultant and is also the author of technical papers, presentations, and a guide book for the civil professional engineering (P.E.) exam.
