Nannis & Associates, Inc. is a consulting structural engineering firm offering a full range of structural engineering services. As an outgrowth of a firm established in 1928, Nannis & Associates has deep set roots in the structural engineering field.
The profession of “Engineer” requires the highest integrity and technical ability. Every Engineer must be above suspicion; he acts as a professional advisor to his clients and his advice must be unprejudiced; he may be charged with the exercise of judicial functions; he has moral responsibilities to his clients and professional associates; his profession carries with it grave responsibilities to the public. These duties and responsibilities cannot be properly discharged unless his motive, conduct and ability are such as to command respect and confidence. It is mandatory that all Engineers conform strictly to all laws of the state and to all governing building codes and regulations having jurisdiction in the state where the project is located.
Every engineering decision takes into consideration economics, laws, regulations and codes, expediency, particular circumstances, assumptions of future growth or change, present conditions, and the health, safety, welfare and needs of the client and the public.
