A PRACTICAL CONSTRUCTION PARTNER

Field knowledge translated into better project information.

Our background combines civil engineering, steel framing assembly, exterior sheathing, interior board systems, roofing and site coordination. For international projects, that experience is applied as remote technical and construction support.

Best fit: contractors and project teams that already have — or will retain — the locally licensed professionals required for permits, structural design and sealed documents.

U.S. PROJECT SUPPORT

Where WRS can plug into your workflow.

Flexible support for preconstruction, coordination and documentation — especially for projects using cold-formed steel framing.

01

CFS Material Takeoffs

Organized quantity takeoffs for studs, tracks, headers, bracing, sheathing and related framing components based on project documents.

02

Framing Documentation Support

Wall breakdowns, opening coordination, panel logic and construction-oriented drawings to support fabrication and field installation.

03

Constructability Review

Review of interfaces between framing, openings, sheathing, MEP routes and roof geometry with a field-execution perspective.

04

Estimating Support

Scope organization, material lists and work-package breakdowns that can support contractor pricing and procurement decisions.

05

Asphalt Shingle Coordination

Roof build-up, substrate, membrane and layout review informed by hands-on shingle roofing experience in Brazil.

06

Remote Construction Support

Ongoing coordination by email, video calls and shared documents for teams that need an additional CFS-focused technical resource.

WHY WRS

Not just drawings. Construction thinking.

01

Hands-on CFS experience

Our portfolio includes residential, commercial and institutional steel framing projects with real site execution.

02

Multi-system coordination

Framing, boards, membranes, MEP routing and roof systems are evaluated as parts of one construction assembly.

03

Lean communication

Clear scopes, marked-up documents and practical questions designed to reduce back-and-forth between office and field.

04

Flexible capacity

Use WRS as additional project support during estimating, documentation or coordination peaks.

HOW WE WORK

Simple remote collaboration.

1

Send your documents

Plans, architectural set, framing criteria, scope notes and any available specifications.

2

Define the deliverable

We agree on the exact output, exclusions, file format, schedule and review cycle before starting.

3

Technical production

WRS develops the takeoff, markups or construction-support documentation for your team.

4

Review & coordination

Questions and revisions are handled through shared files, email and video calls as needed.

U.S. COMPLIANCE

Clear scope. Clear professional boundaries.

WRS Engenharia is a Brazil-based civil engineering and construction company. For U.S. projects, our offering is positioned as remote construction, estimating and documentation support.

We do not represent WRS as a U.S.-licensed Professional Engineering firm. Any service that requires a U.S. P.E. license, sealed structural documents, local permits or a locally licensed contractor must be reviewed, signed, submitted or performed by the appropriate U.S.-licensed professional or company.
