  1. Tony, Barkley Consulting Engineers is the go-to structural engineering firm in Tallahassee and it makes good sense to hire them if you are planning to do anything with weight bearing columns. The need to retain the services of the other engineering firm for window replacement is less clear and readers would benefit from a little more information.

  2. @ Dennis = Same question……… Why would they hire a Consulting Company to complete column repairs at Killearn Lakes Elementary School.

  3. A little more information as to why an engineering firm whose expertise is mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire protection engineering was hired to do a window replacement would be helpful to readers.
