Firas Abdelahad, M.S., P.E.
Structural Engineer
I am a licensed and registered Professional Engineer with a Bachelor of Science degree in Civil/Structural Engineering and a Master of Science degree in Structural Engineering. With over 18 years of experience in the field of Structural Engineering, I have worked in various roles and capacities, ranging from small consulting firms to large corporate settings, and even in a family-owned operation that involved design, manufacturing, and construction.
Over the years, I have learned to adapt to different challenges and responsibilities, wearing many hats to get the job done. I have successfully built and led efficient and productive teams, fostering a positive work environment. One of my notable achievements includes restructuring the engineering department, resulting in a team of exceptional individuals capable of producing engineered drawings exceeding $10 million annually. Additionally, I have had the privilege of working on numerous iconic and large-scale projects, including airport buildings, garages, and college facilities.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Sarah O.
Firas is a prompt communicator and very knowledgable engineer. We enjoyed working with him, had high regard and trust in his recommendations and drawings for a significant foundation removal and rebuild job on our 1860s home.
Andrew C.
Wow, Firas did a phenomenal job diagnosing structural issues with a home we were under contract for. His insight upon visiting the house helped us avoid systemic issues that could have contributed to $30K+ in repairs if we would have followed through with the purchase. Highly recommended for anyone needing structural expertise.
Douglas B.
Fantastic experience working with Firas. He responded quickly to my request, and was able to fit me into his schedule while I was under time pressure. He was very professional, detailed, and friendly during our appointment. He also did a great job balancing his inspection work with taking time to explain his findings and answer questions. My impression is that his conclusions were sound, reasonable, and based on a lot of experience and passion for engineering. I hope I am able to work with PDE/Firas in the future, and would 100% recommend the service.
