Structural Engineering Design

Our structural engineer, Wessel, designs structures to withstand stresses and pressures imposed through environmental conditions and human use. Under his supervision the team ensure buildings and other structures do not deflect, rotate, vibrate excessively or collapse and that buildings remain stable and secure throughout their use. Choice of material is key and critical to meet design specifications. Inspection examining of existing buildings is part of the process to ensure buildings are structurally sound and fit for purpose.

The experience in our structural engineering team stems more than just basic designs. Some structures including houses, theatres, sport stadiums, hospitals, schools, office blocks, bridges, oil rigs, space satellites, ships and air craft’s.

Our structural engineering team work, as with all other NESconsult departments, in close partnership with architects and other professional disciplines and engineering teams.
