Last week, Dibble Engineers Inc. celebrated 25 years of providing high-quality structural engineering services to the Pacific Northwest and beyond!

Twenty-five years is a milestone we do not take lightly. Over a quarter century, we have grown from a small team with big ambitions into a firm deeply rooted in Pacific Northwest engineering projects, and a name our industry knows and trusts. Every building, every structure, and every problem solved along the way has helped build that reputation, and we are proud of what we have built together.

Looking around the room at the celebration, it was clear what has made these 25 years possible. Our clients came out to celebrate with us, and it felt like what we have always been: a small family with a big reach. Every project, every partnership, and every conversation over the years has shaped who we are today, and we are grateful to each person who has been part of the journey.

We also had the honor of announcing six new owners who will lead DEI into its next chapter. Their dedication, expertise, and commitment to our clients and to one another make us confident about the road ahead.

Congratulations to Travis Colliander, P.E., S.E., Melissa White, PE, Michael Doquilo, PE, Lindsey Katrenick (Peterson), PE, Suhib Hammad, PE, and John Mayfield, PE. Your leadership has already made DEI stronger, and we cannot wait to see what you will build next!

Thank you to everyone who has designed, built, and trusted us along the way. Here's to the people who make the work meaningful, and to the next 25 years!

Meet the Lawrence Residence! For this project, Dibble provided structural engineering services for an addition to this existing single-family residence. The new level 3 addition is located along a steep slope critical area and includes a cantilevered soldier pile shoring wall along the north and east perimeter walls. The project was led by our engineers, Travis Colliander, P.E., S.E. Colliander and Amanda Linder. Special thanks to our longtime partners at Clark | Barnes for bringing us onto this project.

From last fall through early spring, our region saw unusually high winds and severe storms, and with that came a surge in tree strike incidents across local neighborhoods. While every household affected has its own story, one thing is always the same: when damage happens unexpectedly, people just want safety, clarity, and someone they can trust.
‎
‎
Dibble Engineers assisted with more than 50 homeowners restoring their properties and bring their structures back up to code following tree damage. Our goals are to ensure structural safety, provide efficient work to allow families return to normal, support with documentation for insurance and permitting, so homeowners don’t have to navigate it alone.
‎
‎
We hope no one has to experience a tree strike, but if it happens, we’re here as a resource. Whether it's an inspection, assessment, or repair guidance, please reach out. Even if you don’t need design work, we’re happy to point you in the right direction.
‎

From tree strikes, fire loss to water damage and beyond, Dibble has extensive experience solving unexpected structural challenges. Learn more in our Unforeseen Project Solutions profile:https://www.dibbleengineers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/DEI-Unforeseen-Project-Solutions.pdf

Project Spotlight: Garden Cabana in Medina

Dibble Engineer is proud to showcase our structural engineering expertise on the stunning Garden Cabana project in Medina! This project faced significant challenges, including poor soil conditions, an existing retaining wall leaning a few inches over the property line, and the new wall was in close proximity to the property line. To overcome these, we designed the cabana to be supported on concrete grade beams supported by pin piles, and we stabilized the leaning retaining wall with a new interior retaining wall and pin piles for a robust, compliant solution.

Despite permitting hurdles that delayed initial progress, the heavy timber structure came together beautifully once delivered to the site.

Current Progress:
- Installing pilings for the property line retaining wall
- Applying elegant stone veneer to enhance the cabana’s aesthetic
- Finalizing site wall and step formwork (likely poured by now!)

These steps are being carefully coordinated with large-format landscape boulders, expertly placed by the garden designer to blend seamlessly with the surrounding landscape.

A big thank you to our partners for bringing us on board to help bring this project to life: General Contractor: Eide Construction and Keating Architects & Interiors

We’re thrilled to tackle complex challenges and deliver structural solutions that elevate design. Way to go, Team Blue!

Lunch & Learn at Dibble: Shaping the Future of Structural Engineering with AI & Technology!

Today’s Lunch & Learn session, proudly organized by the AI & Tech Committee at Dibble, brought our team together to explore how artificial intelligence is transforming the way we design and build.

A special thank you to Genia Design for showcasing their cutting-edge software and giving us a glimpse into the future of structural engineering powered by AI (Thank you Zhihao Zhao Robin Lin). From automating design processes to enhancing collaboration and optimizing structures, it’s exciting to see what’s possible.

We also dove into how Python can serve as a powerful tool for streamlining hand calculations and improving efficiency in our daily workflows. These insights are helping us bridge the gap between traditional engineering methods and modern technological solutions.

At Dibble, we’re committed to continuous learning and empowering our team with the latest knowledge to stay ahead in the industry.
