Residential & Commercial
Structural engineering for residential, assisted living and care homes, office and retail, hotels, mixed-use quarters and car parks.
The largest part of our work. Here it is not the complexity of the structure that decides but the combination of cost, dates and usable floor area.
What it usually turns on
Member depths and column grids, because they feed straight through to lettable area, construction time and concrete volume. Acoustic and fire performance, because they shape the construction and cannot be added afterwards. And the interface with the services, because penetrations arrive late and are needed early.
Our role
Structural design from concept through to detailed design, formwork and reinforcement drawings, building physics and – where wanted – project management from one office.
For alteration, added storeys and change of use, the approach is under existing structures.
