Norm is a recognized expert on parking structure design and restoration, and is the principal author and editor of the Maintenance Manual for the Canadian Parking Association. He has also written several articles and presented seminars on the evaluation and restoration of post-tensioned structures, and participated in writing new structural design codes to avoid problems experienced by earlier structures.
Norm's designs for parking facilities have received multiple awards. His wealth of experience in structural engineering also includes many high-rise office buildings and towers, retail complexes, residential developments, renovations and the evaluation of existing structures. His recent Calgary projects include Energy.Environment.Experiential Learning (EEEL) and the Mount Royal College parking structure.
With his background in structural engineering and corporate management, Norm brings a perspective to projects that is founded on both strong engineering fundamentals and an understanding of his clients' needs.
“We understand our clients' needs and their business. We apply that to helping designers, developers and owners of new and old buildings to be successful.” ~ Norm Webster
