Creating Vertical Solutions That Move People

Innovative, integrated design for elevators, stations, buildings, and structures.

VHB’s vertical solutions connect people to opportunity—whether it’s navigating a transit station, accessing rooftop green space, or repurposing existing buildings. We design and engineer safe, efficient, and code-compliant systems that elevate both movement and experience. From elevator towers and pedestrian bridges to rooftop retrofits and station structures, our integrated team supports clients across transportation, institutional, and real estate markets. Our approach blends creativity with compliance—delivering sustainable, accessible, and future-ready results.

VHB provides full-service vertical transportation and vertical structural design and analysis for public and private spaces. We combine deep experience in elevator and escalator systems, structural engineering, and transit infrastructure to create seamless vertical mobility solutions.

Our integrated teams support projects across the full lifecycle—from feasibility studies to final design for stations, rooftop additions, and ADA accessibility upgrades. We help agencies and developers adapt aging infrastructure or plan for future growth by incorporating implementable, sustainable, and user-friendly solutions.

Every design prioritizes accessibility, safety, and long-term performance—advancing goals like decarbonization, resiliency, and smarter maintenance planning. Whether modernizing complex transit hubs or integrating new elevator cores, VHB moves projects forward with precision and purpose.
