About the practice
Engineering that respects the building, the budget, and the people on site.
Stratheon Engineering is a small, owner-led structural and civil engineering practice on Florida's Space Coast. We work the way good engineers used to — measured, careful, and accountable.
Owner
Bridget R. Haley, P.E.
Bridget founded Stratheon Engineering in 2009 after a decade with regional firms in Florida and Colorado. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering and a Master of Structural Engineering, and is a licensed Professional Engineer in Florida.
She personally reviews every drawing that carries the Stratheon seal and keeps the practice intentionally small so clients work with the engineer, not a project coordinator.
What we believe
Drawings serve the field
A set should answer the questions a foreman has at 7 a.m. — not generate more.
Calculations live in plain English
Owners deserve to understand what the structure does and why a detail was chosen.
Local knowledge matters
Florida's wind, soil, and water tables aren't theoretical. We design with them in mind.
Small is a feature
Fewer hands on the file means fewer mistakes and faster turnarounds.
Show up
Site visits, RFIs, and shop-drawing review are part of the job — not a billable extra.
Say no when needed
If a scope isn't a fit for the practice, we'll say so and recommend someone who is.
