Specialty Market

Adaptive Reuse +
Historic Preservation

Conversion and repurposing of existing buildings can help meet everchanging market demands with a more sustainable and cost effective option.

As such, McLaren’s Maryland engineering team of specialists provide innovative solutions to even the most challenging adaptive-reuse properties. With an extensive structural portfolio along with an understanding of historic preservation needs and building codes, we have helped engineer some of the most iconic and complex adaptive re-use projects in Baltimore and beyond.

We  provide a full range of services for adaptive re-use projects from structural engineering to restoration, surveying and forensics. We work closely with our clients to explore economical, innovative and sustainable solutions to extend the useful life of existing facilities.

Structural Inspections +
Assessments

Early signs of deterioration are not always obvious to the untrained eye. As such, detailed visual, hands-on, and sometimes probe inspections by expert structural engineers are imperative.

Our robust Maryland structural inspection and investigation services can identify deterioration to determine the structural well-being of a building and its individual components. Additionally, we perform root cause analysis and help provide short and long-term remediation, rehabilitation, and repair support.

Living Shorelines +
Coastal Resiliency

With over 7,000 miles of shoreline along the Chesapeake Bay, the Potomac River, and the Atlantic Ocean, Maryland is highly vulnerable to hurricanes and sea level rise. Our Baltimore Marine and Coastal Engineering team puts focus on resiliency.

To combat shoreline erosion caused partly by sea level rise and strong storms and mitigate flooding, Maryland puts a focus on living shorelines. Instead of hard structures, this technique uses native vegetation and other natural materials to stabilize coastlines.
