Structural Design Services
Whether you’re looking for a Structural Engineer for the removal of a load bearing internal wall within an existing property, or an extension to an existing home, or even the design of a new build structure, we are proud to be able to provide a range of structural design services which cover the most common construction projects.
Our extensive experience in producing structural engineering designs for simple and complex situations, ensures our clients receive the most economic, efficient and innovative design solutions.
Front/Rear/Side extension
Rather than looking for a bigger place, you may consider extending your home. From side infills to rear home extensions, we offer several options to extend and maximize your internal living spaces. This also includes flush floor and ceiling finishes, uninterrupted running walls and minimal steel structures for support.
Loft Conversion
If you’re unable to add extensions to your home from the side we can also convert your attic into an additional habitable room. We offer our clients the most economical loft conversion strategy which maximizes the strengths of the existing structure and spaces in order to ensure that additional structures are not required to be built.
Internal/External Wall removal
There are several ways to improve the existing living spaces in your home, whether by creating larger openings or by removing walls entirely. By using existing structural elements within your home (steel and tinder beams) we aim to reduce costs wherever we can and maximize your budget.
Chimney Breast Removal
As chimneys are becoming more and more redundant, we can offer our clients the option of removing them completely leaving a flush ceiling finish. This minimal structure can be done by easily demolishing the chimney structure.
New Build
If you want to build a new home from the foundation, we design and offer all the elements you require to see your project to its completion. This includes full calculations with floor plans, cross-sections, and structural details, all of which are included in our structural design packages.
Foundation Design
Foundation designs of the full spectrum of buildings and structures is undertaken including low rise to multi storey structures. We have expertise of foundation design of structures on difficult ground or with special design requirements. In addition to more straightforward conventional strip or pad foundation design more specialist foundation designs and analysis are undertaken. These include reinforced concrete ground beam, raft, deep and water retaining basement construction. Designs of underpinning or other foundation stabilisation or improvement works are part of the expert comprehensive design service we provide.
Steel Connection Design for Steel Fabricators
We provide steel connection design and details to steel fabricators for a range of projects, whether it is for a simple beam or multi-storey steel frame.
Checking Engineers
With building refurbishment works becoming ever more popular than selling and buying a larger home, it is inevitable that adjoining owners or property owners seek an independent opinion from another engineer before agreeing to building works which have the potential to affect their properties. This independent engineer is known in the industry as a checking engineer. We offer checking engineering services to adjoining owners advising their party wall surveyors when for example basement work or complex alterations are proposed.
Site Supervision
Our staff has the knowledge and experience required to provide skilful supervision during construction projects. Pre-agreed site inspections can be undertaken to ensure that the ongoing build reflects the initial brief and design of the project. They can provide a variety of services in order to reach project goals within your budget and timeline.
