PE-sealed pool construction drawings for Tampa, Brandon, Riverview, Plant City and Valrico — structural engineering for the deck, footings and screen enclosure sized for Hillsborough County, ready for Hillsborough County (with the City of Tampa reviewing separately). Same-day quote, most packages complete in 5–7 business days.
A new pool project in Hillsborough County is more than the shell — the deck slab, equipment pad, elevated or raised features and the screen enclosure all need structural engineering and a permit. We prepare the sealed package Hillsborough County (with the City of Tampa reviewing separately) needs to approve it.
In Hillsborough County, a pool build almost always needs PE-stamped structural engineering for the parts around the water: the deck slab and footings, any raised beam or elevated deck, the equipment pad, and the screen enclosure (pool cage) if one is included. The cage in particular is a tall, wind-loaded structure that Hillsborough County reviews closely. Confirm the specifics with Hillsborough County (with the City of Tampa reviewing separately) before you build.
The pool shell is one piece; the structures around it are another. At Hillsborough County's 150 mph near Tampa Bay (about 140 mph inland) design wind speed the screen enclosure and any elevated deck develop real loads, and the deck slab and footings have to carry everything on Hillsborough County's soil. We engineer all of it into one sealed package so the whole project clears review together.
We prepare pool construction permit packages across Hillsborough County, including Tampa, Brandon, Riverview, Plant City and Valrico. Wherever your site is, the drawings are sealed for your address's exact conditions.
Franca Engineering prepares pool construction permit packages from $2,500 — full PE-stamped structural drawings for the deck, footings and enclosure, wind and foundation calculations for Hillsborough County, and response to plan-review comments (re-sealing until approved is included). County permit fees are separate and paid to the building department.
Send your pool plans or scope and your address — we quote the same day and most structural packages are ready in 5–7 business days.
Start Your Project →Yes — in Hillsborough County the deck slab, footings, any raised deck or beam, the equipment pad, and the screen enclosure all need PE-sealed structural engineering, even though the pool shell itself is built by the pool contractor. Confirm the scope with Hillsborough County.
It includes the deck slab and footing design, any elevated or raised deck framing, the equipment pad, and the wind-load engineering for the screen enclosure — all sized for Hillsborough County's 150 mph near Tampa Bay (about 140 mph inland) design wind speed and soil conditions.
The structural engineering package is usually ready in 5–7 business days. Plan review through Hillsborough County (with the City of Tampa reviewing separately) typically runs two to four weeks for a full pool project, faster when the package is complete and sealed on the first submission.
