Independent residential and small commerical engineering and design in Anchorage, Alaska.

Pluto Designs is an independent one person engineering firm. My name is Tim Samuelson I am a licenced Profressional Civil Engineer for the State of Alaska. I develop the designs, calculations, and drawings needed for Municipality of Anchorage construction permits or for other construction needs. I specialize in residential decks, home additions, and remodeles, in addition to commerical remodels. I will work with you and your contractor to make sure things are right the first time, and in a timely manner.

Being independent, I have very low overhead costs and can be fit-for-purpose for smaller jobs. I offer lump sum or time based bids.

About Me

Tim Samuelson

Licenced Professional Engineer

I was born, raised, and currently live in Anchorage, graduating from East High in 2002. I earned a Bachelor’s of Arts in Mathematics from the University of Colorado Boulder in 2007 and a Bachlor’s of Science in Civil Engineering from the University of Alaska Anchorage in 2012. I obtained my Professional Engineer licence in the State of Alaska in 2018. My work has primarly been in the oil and gas sector in Alaska.

I started Pluto Desings after buying a house and going through the difficulties of obtaining construction permits for a remodel. Navigating the Municipality of Anchorage code requirements and obtaining the needed permits was a challenge. I needed engineering drawings and calculations but found that there are few choices in Anchorage. I could not find a small fit-for-purpose outfit for small engineering jobs such as decks or remodels.
