The Firm:

Creative Building Works is more than a structural engineering firm. We listen to know what it takes for your project to succeed. We provide the expertise and documentation to get it there.

We enjoy connecting with all sorts of teammates. Whether your hand is on a keyboard, hammer, or plasma torch.  We’re passionate about places where people dwell.

What do we do? We partner with designers and builders in the modular and custom residential world.

      • Construction document and engineering services for modular factories on the West Coast: Oregon, Washington, and northern California.
      • Structural engineering for wood-framed structures. The framer’s choice.
      • Custom wood fabrications, including timber trusses, truss repairs, and structural artisanry.
      • Specialty steel structures for industry, including fabrication equipment and overhead cranes.
      • Serving site-built clients in the Rogue Valley – Grants Pass, Medford, Phoenix, Talent, Ashland, and beyond.

The Logo:

The nut symbolizes the steel bolted connection, the most iconic method to join pieces together, utilizing the screw simple machine. The nut is in motion, which infers that we are too, as curious and productive people.

The Douglas fir branchlet symbolizes the West Coast’s premier framing lumber, a fantastic organic biopolymer composite created from an invisible gas in the air, water, trace minerals, and sunlight. Who ever thought of that?
