Industrial and metal building design across Texas
Warehouses, metal buildings, plants and facilities, drawn with the structure and the equipment in mind. A1 leads the project and works with its engineering partners, JC & J Engineering and Seridme, on structural, mechanical, electronics, controls and fabrication.

What we design
- Warehouses and distribution buildings
- Metal buildings, shops and flex warehouses
- Plants and industrial facilities
- Office wings, truck docks and clear-span bays
- Site plans with truck courts, parking and detention
- Structural, mechanical, electronics and controls, with our partners
One team for the building and what goes inside
For plants, industrial facilities and complex commercial projects, A1 works in conjunction with two engineering partners, so one team covers the building, its structure and the equipment inside it. Licensed partners seal the engineering sheets.
Some of our work
How it works
- ConsultA free first meeting and a site visit. We listen for what you need, your budget and your timeline.
- We design itConcept plans, elevations and renderings you can react to early, while changes are still easy.
- We engineer itStructure, MEP, site and irrigation, engineered and checked against code. When a job needs it, such as industrial or complex commercial work, we engineer it with our partners.
- PermitA complete, coordinated drawing set, ready for permitting and bidding. We handle the permit process for you and expedite it until it is approved.
- We build itWe build it, or we support your builder until it stands.
Questions
Do you design pre-engineered metal buildings?
Yes: warehouses, shops, flex suites and barndominiums, including the site plan and the permit drawings.
Can you work on plant equipment and controls?
Yes, through our partners: JC & J Engineering for structural, mechanical, electronics and controls, and Seridme for machining, heat exchangers and pressure vessels.
Do you take projects outside Houston?
Yes. Most of our work is across Texas, and we take on projects anywhere in the U.S.
