    What is structural engineering?

    Structural engineering is the process that comes before the construction of a building or infrastructure commences. It is a branch of civil engineering that is concerned with the planning and design, as well as project management, of structures such as bridges, office blocks, schools, homes, and more. Structural engineering is an essential part of the construction process and focuses on ensuring these structures remain safe and won’t fall down or collapse.

    What does a structural engineer in South London do?

    A Structural engineer uses their extensive knowledge of mathematics and physics to design the structure of buildings. This essential part of construction is necessary to ensure that the building or structure will be able to endure environmental stressors, as well as support the weight of people and equipment during its lifespan. There are a few simple steps that we undertake as your structural engineer in Peckham to do this…

    Research & Analyse

    A structural engineer’s report in London shouldn’t be underestimated as it can provide you with invaluable information pertaining to:

    • Blueprints and maps
    • Topographical (forms and features of land surface) data.
    • Environmental data

    As an experienced structural engineer in Croydon, we will use our expertise in physics and mathematics, to predict the performance of materials and structural elements to ensure the complete structural safety and stability of the projects that we work on. We will also be able to provide FREE quotes at this stage for the cost and quantities of materials, equipment, and labour

    Plan & Design

    Once we have completed our analysis, we will use state-of-the-art computer-aided design or CAD programmes to create highly accurate 3D images. These will detail all of the calculations and specifications that need to be adhered to throughout the construction process. Using these schematics during the build means that the final structure will be accurate, economical, and, most importantly, structurally safe.

    Project Management

    As your chosen structural engineer in Bromley, we will work alongside you throughout development and will provide Building Regulations and Planning Permission packages. This includes planning and structural calculations, as well as advice and support at every stage of development. The CAD depictions we provide can be given to your building contractor and architect to assist with the construction.

    There are many reasons why you may require a structural engineer in South London. Here’s where we can help…

    Renovations or Home Improvements

    If you are planning on making any significant changes to your property that could compromise the structural integrity of the building, you’ll likely need a structural engineer. Home renovations that often require a structural engineer in South London are:

    • Home extensions.
    • Altering doors and windows.
    • Loft and garage conversions.
    • Modifying internal walls.
    • Fitting solar panels.
    • Removing a chimney breast.

    Large-Scale Infrastructures

    Local authorities and councils will often require the services of a structural engineer for projects undertaken within the public domain. These can include office blocks, car parks, hospitals, retail premises and more. There are many building regulations and permits required for structures and infrastructures to be built within the public sector and having a structural engineer on hand is essential.

    Structural Inspections

    As well as being hired to plan and design new structures, structural engineers in South London can also be of service if there are structural issues with an existing property. This could include subsidence, cracking walls, sagging ceilings or unsafe rooflines which can be common in older properties. Alternatively, if you are purchasing a property, a chartered surveyor may have advised on some structural issues. In this instance, we can analyse the damage and provide details of remedial action.

    Do I legally need a structural engineer?

    Most building and construction work needs to meet building regulations and planning permission criteria by law. Therefore, you do legally require a structural engineer to assess and plan your structure so that it meets these regulations
