Expert Restoration for Florida's Climate and Conditions
Florida’s coastal climate presents significant challenges to the structural integrity of commercial and high-rise buildings. Prolonged exposure to sun, humidity, salt-laden air, and extreme weather accelerates the deterioration of exterior systems and structural components. As building envelopes age, issues such as water infiltration, material degradation, and corrosion can compromise safety, functionality, and code compliance.
At RAS Engineering, our restoration consulting services are designed to evaluate and address the root causes of structural and façade degradation. Through expert inspection and forensic testing, we identify early indicators of failure in brick, masonry, stucco, terracotta, concrete, and structural steel elements.
Common conditions assessed include:
Cracked or spalled concrete due to thermal cycling or chloride exposure
Masonry deterioration and mortar joint separation from moisture intrusion
Water damage, microbial growth, and material breakdown following flood or storm events
Failures in building envelope systems including façade leakage, roof flashing, or sealant degradation
Corrosion affecting parapets, chimneys, and embedded structural steel
Our mission is to deliver data-driven recommendations and engineering specifications that restore performance, support regulatory compliance, and extend the service life of the built environment.
