Practical engineering.
Thoughtful delivery.
Engineering for BC owners, developers, contractors and municipal projects. Civil sites, defined structural assignments, stormwater, mine-site civil support and project delivery, coordinated around your next step.
Built around your site.
Focused on your next step.
Engineering and coordinated specialist support for site development, buildings, infrastructure, mine-site works and construction. Scope and professional responsibilities are defined for each project.
Civil site development
Grading, earthworks, access and site-servicing coordination for land development and municipal infrastructure interfaces.
Stormwater & drainage
Runoff assessment, conveyance, detention and retention concepts, infiltration and erosion and sediment control.
Project & construction support
Estimating, schedules, tender support, technical coordination, civil field reviews and construction administration.
Structural design & assessment
Defined building, foundation, retaining and rehabilitation assignments matched to relevant experience, project complexity and checking requirements.
Geotechnical coordination
Investigation coordination and integration of soils, groundwater and foundation recommendations. Specialist investigations and opinions are assigned to qualified professionals.
Mining & aggregate civil support

A direct connection
to your engineer.
ALDER is led by Hamed Ashkan, P.Eng., PMP, bringing civil, structural and construction delivery experience in Canada and the UAE since 2009. This is the principal’s background; ALDER was established in 2026.
We connect site information, design requirements and construction priorities to help move projects forward with clarity.
Understand the site
Review objectives, available survey information, site constraints and approval requirements.
Develop the solution
Define the scope, coordinate specialist input and prepare the agreed engineering deliverables within demonstrated competence and appropriate review arrangements.
Support delivery
Respond to technical questions and provide the agreed construction coordination and field-review support.

Grounded in real construction.
Our principal’s background includes municipal and environmental infrastructure, mixed-use development, utilities and road/access works in BC and the UAE.
