03Capabilities

Eight capabilities, one discipline.

Precast concrete is the only discipline we practice — and within it we cover the full scope, from the first sales-engineering call through the last connection in the field, every package signed and sealed.

All services
04How we work
01 / Intake
Understand the system
We study the architectural intent, structural scheme, and erection sequence before touching a calc.
02 / Design
Engineer the pieces
Panels, connections, and lift points — designed to code, buildability, and the plant's capabilities.
03 / Deliver
Documents that get built
Stamped calcs, clear shop drawings, and direct answers on the phone when the field calls.
04 / Stand by
Support through erection
We follow the project through the last panel and the final connection. That's the job.

05The founder

Built by a precast specialist.

Recknagel Engineering was founded on a single idea — that precast deserves its own specialist, not a generalist with a precast folder.

Every project is led by a licensed PE with deep precast experience. We work lean, we stay accountable, and we're on the phone when you need us.
