Research and Analyse
As experienced structural engineers in Surrey, we understand the importance of research and analysis. Our role allows us to use our expertise in physics and mathematics, to predict the performance of materials (such as concrete and steel) and structural elements (such as walls and foundations) to ensure complete safety, stability, and longevity by:
- Analysing blueprints and maps.
- Analysing topographical (forms and features of land surface) data.
- Analysing environmental data.
We will also be able to provide estimates at this stage for the cost and quantities of materials, equipment, and labour. Please don’t hesitate to contact us for a FREE quote.
Plan and Design
After the research and analysis process is complete, we will design and plan for construction using computer-aided design or CAD systems. Using these programms, we are able to create detailed, 3D designs of structures and infrastructures ahead of construction. This means that the final structure will be accurate, sustainable, economical, and, most importantly, structurally safe.
