Frequently Asked Questions

What is Structural Engineering?

Structural engineering services is a branch of civil engineering concerned with the design and analysis of structures that support or resist loads. These structures can range from buildings and bridges to dams and towers.

Structural engineers use principles of physics and mathematics to ensure that structures are safe, stable, and able to withstand various forces, such as gravity, wind, earthquakes, and temperature fluctuations. They consider factors like materials used, geometry, and environmental conditions to develop designs that meet safety standards and fulfill the functional requirements of the structure.

Key tasks of structural engineers include:

  1. Designing structures: This involves determining the appropriate materials, dimensions, and configurations to ensure the structural integrity and stability of a building or other infrastructure.
  2. Analysing loads: Structural Engineers calculate and analyse the loads that a structure will be subjected to during its lifetime, including dead loads (the weight of the structure itself), live loads (such as occupants and furniture), and environmental loads (such as wind and earthquakes).
  3. Ensuring safety: Safety is paramount in structural engineering. Structural Engineers must ensure that structures meet building codes and safety standards to protect against collapse or failure.
  4. Selecting materials: Structural Engineers select materials such as concrete, steel, wood, and composites based on their properties and suitability for the specific requirements of the project.
  5. Collaborating with other professionals: Structural Engineers often collaborate closely with architects, construction managers, and other engineers to coordinate the design and construction process and ensure that the final structure meets the client's needs and specifications.

Overall, structural engineering services play a crucial role in the construction and maintenance of infrastructure around the world, ensuring that buildings and other structures are safe, durable, and able to withstand the forces they may encounter.

A few examples of structures our team can design include:

  • Wall removal
  • Tie down upgrades
  • Structural remediation designed
  • Retaining walls
  • Culverts
  • Residential bridge
  • Building repair
  • Sign posts
No matter the scope or complexity of your project, our team is dedicated to delivering superior design solutions that exceed your expectations. With our expertise and diligence, you can trust us to bring your vision to life while ensuring the structural integrity and safety of your property.

Whilst our team is equipped with the skills and knowledge to design new house builds this is not a service we currently offer. Our team of engineers can assist in design of smaller projects such as tie down upgrades, wall removals, retaining walls, culverts, bridges and signposts just to name a few. If you are after a design for a new house build we recommend you contact a specialist engineering design company.
