Stevens & Associates (S&A) congratulates, Benjamin Harwood, PE for earning his license to practice as a Professional Structural Engineer in the State of Vermont. Harwood’s enthusiasm for structural engineering is inspired by his early exposure to the construction trades; working hands-on in the fields of excavation, logging and sawmilling, and traditional carpentry with his father. After receiving a Bachelor of Science degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering from Tufts University, Harwood returned to his hometown of Brattleboro and worked as a consultant engineer providing construction inspection and testing services for government and commercial projects.
As an engineer at S&A, Harwood’s experience includes renovations of historic structures, structural assessments of existing buildings, stabilization of historic façades, and numerous new construction projects ranging in scale from residential and multifamily, to light-commercial and industrial buildings. He has experience in multi-story light-framed wood construction, steel, and concrete structures. Harwood is interested in historic reservation and adaptive reuse projects, and is passionate about the character and uniqueness of Brattleboro and its surrounding communities. In addition to his responsibilities as a structural engineer, he volunteers within the community, supports local school STEM programs, and participates in S&A’s Career Shadowing program.
