IPS Engineering Group utilizes a unique approach to engineering by specializing in the chemical composition of construction materials as they relate to building envelope water-tightness; i.e.: roofing, glazing, waterproofing, stucco or painting. By employing the use of the right materials, a sustainable watertight structure is achieved.
Specifying inappropriate materials or value-engineering building envelope materials leads to water intrusion of which, in turn, can lead to significant deterioration of the building's structural integrity as well as litigation. A huge portion of construction litigation is based on water intrusion, mostly due to failed materials.

Services
With an emphasis on the chemical stability of materials in a thermally dynamic and wet environment, IPS Engineering Group has the ability to provide a broad base of services. These range from Red Lining, specifications, field inspection, testing and providing expert testimony. All of IPS' services are to ensure the long-term efficacy of your building envelope.
Forensic Engineering specializing in Multi-Use Structures as well as Multi-Family High-Rise Condominiums working closely with Owners, Association Boards and Property Managers for their restoration project needs. Evaluating structural components and structural systems to ensure the structural integrity of buildings.
Due to IPS Companies' high standards, as well as commitment to quality and long-term warranties, only vetted and approved contractors may apply American Hydrotech and Lymtal products. The PREMIERE contractors have been vetted by the manufacturer as well as IPS and hold to these same standards and commitments.
Identifying problems and providing common sense solutions is our strength. Since water intrusion is the leading cause of building envelope problems, the solutions are always found in the chemistries of the materials utilized and their substrate. Waterproofing may represent only a minor part of the overall structure but it can lead to the costliest repairs if not done properly.
The majority of building envelope construction failures happen because the physio-chemical properties of a specified material or a value-engineered material do not match its intended purpose. For instance, the physio-chemical properties of caulking cannot fulfill the intended purpose for a watertight 2 expansion joint opening.
