Structural, Civil, Inspections and more

Everything a residential or low-rise project needs from an engineer, from the first prelim to the last frame inspection. Fast turnaround guaranteed, in as little as 1 day.

We design and document the structure for new homes, extensions, dual occupancies and multi-unit townhouse developments. You get preliminary engineering first, so any clashes with the architectural set are flagged before anything is certified.

  • Footing and slab design: waffle, stiffened raft, strip and pad
  • Bored pier and screw pile footings
  • Framing plans and member schedules
  • Steel beams, posts and portal frames
  • Timber and LVL sizing to AS 1684
  • Wind and earthquake loading to AS 1170
  • Retaining walls
  • Structural computations for your building surveyor

Who it's for: architects and building designers, builders, developers and owner-builders.

Stormwater drainage design that satisfies council permit conditions, from simple legal point of discharge plans to full engineering plans for multi-unit sites.

  • Legal point of discharge (LPOD) applications
  • Stormwater drainage layouts
  • On-site detention design
  • Pit and pipe design
  • Council engineering plan submissions
  • Responding to council RFIs

Engineer's inspections at the stages your building surveyor requires, booked around your pour dates and framing schedule.

  • Pier inspections: founding depth and material checked before concrete
  • Pre-slab inspections: reinforcement, beams and set-downs checked against the drawings
  • Steel & frame inspections: members, connections and bracing checked before lining
  • Dilapidation reports: photo record of neighbouring properties before and after works

If your home has new cracks, a damaged chimney, or doors and windows that have started to stick after a tremor, we can inspect it and tell you plainly what has happened and what to do next.

  • On-site structural inspection
  • Crack mapping with photos and measurements
  • Assessment of masonry, chimneys, footings and framing
  • Written report suitable for your insurer
  • Advice on whether the building is safe to occupy
  • Repair design and documentation if needed
