Structural Design & Calculations
Structural design and calculations are often required when making significant changes to an existing property or constructing a new building.
We assess the proposed works and prepare structural calculations based on the specific requirements of the project, taking into account the existing structure and the loads created by the proposed alterations.
Our structural calculations can support:
- Rear extensions
- Side extensions
- Single-storey extensions
- Double-storey extensions
- Loft conversions
- Garage conversions
- Load-bearing wall removal
- Structural openings
- RSJ installations
- New build construction
- Foundation design
Providing builders with clear structural information before work begins helps reduce uncertainty during construction and supports the Building Control process.
Structural Engineers for Extensions & Conversions
Increasing the size or usability of a property often involves structural changes to the existing building.
Our structural engineers provide design and calculation support for extensions and conversions in Harwich, including:
- Rear property extensions
- Side extensions
- Double-storey extensions
- Loft conversions
- Garage conversions
- Basement conversions
- Open-plan alterations
- New build homes
We consider how the proposed work interacts with the existing structure before developing a suitable engineering solution.
This helps ensure new structural elements, openings, supports and load paths are properly considered as part of the wider project.
Structural Surveys
If you have concerns about the condition or stability of a property, a structural survey or assessment can help establish what may be causing the problem and what action may be appropriate.
Our structural engineers Harwich services can assist with properties affected by cracking, movement, deterioration or previous structural alterations.
We can provide support for:
- Crack investigations
