Services
Structural Design
Our structural design service creates bespoke solutions using cost-effective materials and advanced 3D modelling. We specialise in steel and concrete structures for commercial, residential, and industrial projects. Directors oversee each scheme from concept to completion, ensuring compliance with current standards while optimising buildability and value engineering.
Civil Engineering
Comprehensive civil engineering covers highways, foundations, and public realm projects. We employ Civils 3D and Revit software to develop detailed designs aligned with planning requirements. Our expertise includes site infrastructure integration and coordination with regulatory bodies for seamless project delivery.
Drainage Solutions
We provide sustainable drainage systems (SUDS) and flood risk assessments using InfoDrainage software. Our solutions combine surface water management with environmental considerations, ensuring compliance with adoption authorities' requirements for both urban and rural developments.
SUDS Design
Specialist SUDS design incorporates attenuation tanks, permeable pavements, and swales. We develop strategies that meet planning conditions while managing surface water runoff effectively. Our designs balance functionality with environmental impact across various project types.
3D Modelling
Advanced 3D modelling using Tekla Structures and Revit ensures precise coordination of building elements. This technology enables clash detection, construction sequencing visualisation, and accurate quantity take-offs, enhancing project efficiency and reducing on-site errors.
