Structural and Civil Engineers in Eugene, Oregon
Johnson Broderick Engineering is a structural engineer in Eugene, Oregon, and a civil engineering firm too. We work with clients large and small, from residential additions to new commercial buildings and everything in between. We help with the design leading up to the permit, we get you the permit, and we’re there afterwards to help during construction. If your project isn’t something we can help with, we’ll try to recommend someone who can.
We’ve been part of the local engineering and design scene for 25 years. Chances are we’ve seen a project like yours before.
JBE had the opportunity to provide engineering services on the finishing line truss for the 2025 Eugene Marathon, inside historic Hayward Field.
Experienced, honest, fair, reasonable and responsive
That’s how we describe ourselves. Here’s what each word means in practice.
- Experienced. Twenty-five years in Eugene, licensed in Oregon, Washington and California, and thousands of projects completed.
- Honest. We will review your project with you to make sure we are the best fit to assist. If there is a better option that will save you money, time, or headache, we will tell you – and offer a referral. We have working relationships with many other professionals.
- Fair. We will provide clear scopes of work and cost estimates for our services before we begin. We have heard too many stories from clients who agree to work with an engineer only to be nickel and dimed through the process. We provide transparency and clarity to our scopes and estimates for the benefit of you and us.
- Reasonable. We are engineers and provide designs in accordance with adopted building codes. We are also humans who understand the construction process. We strive to provide practical designs that are understandable by building departments and buildable by contractors.
- Responsive. Every new inquiry gets a call back the same day if possible, and by the next business day at the latest. A person answers the phone, and voicemails get returned.

Got a letter from the county?
If a jurisdiction has found a structure on your property built without a permit, it’s one of the most common calls we get, and local jurisdictions know us for handling it. We find out exactly what the county needs, get it in writing, prepare the documents and get the permit, so the problem goes away. How as-built permits work.
