Designing structures in Hawaii presents unique challenges not found on the mainland, and Murar Engineering and Design, Inc. has been at the forefront of tackling them since 2005. With years of experience, we’ve developed a deep understanding of the needs of local contractors and the construction techniques that thrive in the islands.
Hawaii’s special circumstances, from its isolation 2,500 miles from anywhere to its vulnerability to hurricanes, volcanoes, earthquakes, and termites, demand an expert touch. Adding to the complexity, limited resources and the enforcement of mainland US codes make every project a balancing act. Successfully navigating these challenges requires intimate knowledge of local building practices, materials, and what’s possible in this tropical paradise. Structural design in Hawaii is no small feat, but we’re passionate about creating innovative, resilient structures that stand the test of time in one of the world’s most beautiful yet unpredictable environments.
