Dedicated to supporting Colorado’s mountain communities, one structure at a time

Glenwood Structural and Civil has been the trusted structural engineering firm for the Roaring Fork Valley and Colorado’s Western Slope since 1999. From landmark government buildings and large-scale commercial developments to high-end custom residences and critical public infrastructure, we bring 27 years of mountain engineering expertise to every project we take on.

Our approach is straightforward: draw on the full resources of the project team to produce structural documents that are precise, practical, and built to last. We are based in Glenwood Springs, Colorado — and we know this area the way only a local firm can.

  • As a general contractor we are typically involved in building projects from preconstruction services through project completion. When we get the opportunity to recommend consultants we always recommend Adolfo Gorra and Glenwood Structural for structural engineering services. We have worked with Glenwood Structural for more than 13 years, and completed at least 6 successful projects with them. We feel confident in Adolfo's approach to projects and know that clients, architects, and owner's reps always receive clear communication and expectations are always met.
