Building Design and Restoration

ARCHITECTS, ENGINEERS, & Canadian Association of Heritage Professionals

Pow Architecture and Pow Peterman have extensive experience performing Building Envelope Studies, Heritage Remediation, New Building and Addition Design, Contract Administration, and Project Management. Using a combined expertise of optimized building architecture, structural requirements, and our accredited in-house Canadian Association of Heritage Professionals (CAHP), we have been able to help clients with their new and old buildings, structures, and monuments.

Our experience in a wide variety of projects, including institutional and educational buildings and commercial developments and our long-standing reputation with building owners, contractors and governing authorities can ensure that your project will be handled in a professional, timely and cost-effective manner. In addition, the members of our firm have a very clear understanding of how buildings are designed, with each member being involved on a project-by-project basis throughout the entire design and construction process.

Pow Peterman Consulting Engineers and POW Architects are the Engineers and Architects on record for many different schoolboards in Southwestern Ontario. We are responsible for additions, condition assessment and remediation, new schools and daycares, etc.

With vast experience working on and repairing old buildings, places of worship became a natural place for Pow Peterman and Pow Architects to operate due to the age of many of these buildings.

We have been involved in structural assessments, repairs of the building’s structure and masonry, new church spires, additions, renovations, retrofits, etc.

Pow Peterman has spent over 30 years working on heritage-designated sites. We have in-house CAHP Experts. (Canadian Associated of Heritage Professionals)

Some projects include the Brock Monument, Lighthouses, Courthouses, Libraries, Historical Forts, and War Monuments.

With most Government Buildings requiring repairs, retrofits, and additions, our work for municipal, provincial, and government entities has been a regular part of POW’s building division. Pow is often contacted to assess the condition of a building as well as take the proper steps to remediate any damage or safety concerns.

Architecture and Engineering work required for new buildings, building additions, renovations, or repurpose,

With a vast amount of POW’s divisions operating in Automotive and other Industries. We find ourselves providing civil engineering, design, inspection, and certification required for the structures and equipment that experience large loads carried throughout a manufacturing facility. Ie. Truss Studies, Footings for Steel Structures and Pits

Pow Technologies and Pow Specialty Equipment specialize in designing, analyzing, modelling, testing, and supplying custom equipment and structural solutions for clients across many industries. We take pride in the range and difficulty of our projects and our ability to incorporate our high-end technologies to deliver innovative yet practical solutions to site.

Our areas of expertise allow for a range of exposure to various industries involving dynamically loaded and highly cyclical structures and equipment. In addition, we take tremendous pride in our aggressive mindset to take on new challenges made possible by our employees, reputation, office environment and the range and quality of our client base.

We believe in transferring innovative engineering technologies and knowledge across industries. This allows us to provide our expertise on Dynamically Loaded Systems in many different and niche sectors where safety and reliability are paramount.

Pow Specialty Equipment and Pow Technologies have been involved in different aspects of the Aerospace industry. Using our knowledge of structures, equipment, and manufacturing processes, we have performed consulting work, engineering services, and supply of custom equipment used for aircraft production or airport infrastructure.

Pow’s Industrial Engineering and Design-Build divisions have spent a vast amount of time studying and  understanding automotive production. We are involved in structural, mechanical, civil, welding, and automation engineering. We also perform design-build and integration of custom equipment and large steel structures.

Please visit our Manufacturing Structures and Equipment Page for more information.

POW spent a significant portion of its life performing reliability enhancement and design-build services for these sectors. We have designed, analyzed, and built custom equipment and structures in Mining, Energy, Oil, & Gas. This has included the design and analysis of custom drilling equipment, including 24ft diameter Raised Bore Drills, steel structures, mobile equipment components, ROPS/FOPS, and aftermarket parts.

Our long history of analyzing and testing mobile equipment led us to our understanding and knowledge of how dynamic loading profiles affect reliability and life-cycle. Using analysis, field testing, and simulations, we can optimize the design of critical components of custom mobile equipment to serve specific purposes for Mining, Construction, Transportation, and Military. In addition, these technologies and the knowledge gained from countless projects in this sector have been the guiding principle of our solutions throughout the other industries where we operate.

We find ourselves working on projects with a system requiring extensive structural and mechanical expertise. We design, analyze, test/inspect, modify, and build custom solutions for mechanical and structural systems, including Moveable Bridges, Large Gantry Cranes, Tuned Mass Dampers, and other structural-mechanical dependent systems.

Some projects are deemed heritage designation, and POW uses our in-house CAHP experts (Canadian Association of Heritage Professionals) to work alongside the multi-disciplined design and teams.

With a diverse set of engineering and analysis expertise, design-build capabilities, BIM Integration, Project Management and Commissioning capabilities, we are an excellent single source for specialty one-of-a-kind structures and equipment.

This includes fully automated Wind Tunnels that use a CLT and Steel Hybrid Structure, Never before seen manufacturing equipment, CN Tower Edgewalk, Entertainment Rides, Large custom moving sunroofs for crowned princes, and many more!

We always love approaching new challenges with our vast industry experience. Using our unique skill sets, we provide our clients with solutions that work as they are intended immediately after implementation.
