Profile & Expertise
CN Europlan GmbH: engineering practice for structural design, building physics, MEP and project management, founded 2018, based in Hamburg, member of the VBI.
Founded in 2018, based in Hamburg, member of the VBI – the German association of consulting engineers.
What we can do
Structural engineering is the core: new build, conversion, refurbishment and demolition, across all HOAI service phases, in reinforced concrete, steel, timber, masonry and composite construction.
Around it we work in the fields that border the structure and would otherwise have to be coordinated across offices: building physics, MEP engineering, architecture and project management. A project can therefore sit with us in full – but it does not have to.
How we work
Model-based, where the project supports it. We federate the discipline models, check for clashes and take quantities from the model rather than maintaining them alongside it – see BIM.
And we design in the order things get built. A complete drawing set that arrives late is worthless to a site.
What we would rather be judged on
Not the analysis method, but whether the next pour has its drawings on time, whether the cost statement from concept stage still holds at the end, and whether what will not work was said early.
