How Should Architects + Structural Engineers Work Together? w/ Point B Design Group & A-1 Engineers

Why don't Architects sketch with clients anymore? And why don't Engineers invest in teaching their Architect collaborators? These two Austin firms have revolutionized collaboration by front-loading coordination, using paper to build trust, and aligning billing phases perfectly. In this episode, you will learn: → Why front-loading structural knowledge eliminates late-stage coordination disasters → How paper sketching prevents "too precious" client paralysis in early phases → The transparent billing model that forces perfect architect-engineer phase alignment → Why trust reduces process steps and speeds project delivery → How to break the linear design-coordinate-redline cycle that burns months Skip to the best parts: 01:01 - How two Texas firms started their natural partnership 08:31 - Breaking the linear project delivery methodology 14:10 - Time management vs accessibility paradox for engineers 11:30 - Transparent billing and phase alignment requirements 29:20 - Tool stack: Monograph, ArchiCAD, paper sketching, and AI rendering 34:30 - Hiring mindset over degrees and team development 47:50 - What they'll never go back to doing Meet our guests: Maggie Wylie, AIA, is founder of Point B Design Group in Austin, Texas, specializing in residential and commercial projects with a focus on collaborative efficiency.
