As a Long Beach based firm with several CSULB alumni, MHP has a special long-term relationship with the campus. We have provided structural engineering services to CSULB continuously since the 1990s and have completed hundreds of projects at the campus. The work varies in type and size, and has included several new buildings, major renovation projects and the seismic strengthening of nine major campus buildings, most of which were on the CSU Priority 1 or Priority 2 seismic list. Our recent major CSULB projects include the new CPIE building, a 34,000 sq. ft. three-story net zero energy building and the complete modernization and seismic strengthening of the three-story Student Success Center (PH2), a 1950s era non-ductile concrete building.

Over the last decade, MHP was the structural engineer for the Residential Learning College, involving seismic evaluation of the Brooks College Campus during acquisition by CSULB, and concluding with complete redevelopment and seismic strengthening of four multi-story buildings into student housing and classrooms. MHP was also structural engineer for the new Music Pavilion and Plaza that serves as the hub for the Bob Cole Conservatory. Our strong relationship with Beach Building Services and our knowledge of the campus is unparalleled among structural firms.
