History

Our company was formed through the integration of two highly skilled and dynamic professional structural engineering design companies with much in common - Culley Associates in San Francisco, and Holmes Consulting Group in New Zealand.

Culley Associates began in 1978 and has since been recognized as a leader in structural engineering in the San Francisco Bay area.

Holmes Consulting Group began in 1956 as a private practice in Christchurch, New Zealand and has since been recognized as New Zealand's premier structural engineering consultancy. Through dynamism, diversity and pushing the limits of creativity, Holmes has established a reputation for solution finding and creating value for clients.

Building on the foundation of both companies, Holmes Culley is positioned to continue providing high quality structural consulting services in the Bay Area and beyond.
