Structural Design & Calculations

- Load-bearing wall removals
- RSJ installations

- Foundation requirements
Accurate calculations and clear structural specifications help contractors understand how the proposed works should be constructed and provide the technical information required for Building Control consideration.
Structural Engineers Saffron Walden for Extensions & Conversions
Extensions and conversions often involve changes to existing walls, floors, roofs and foundations. Appropriate structural design helps ensure new and existing construction work together safely.
Our structural engineers provide support for:
- Rear extensions
- Side extensions
- Single-storey extensions
- Double-storey extensions
- Loft conversions
- Garage conversions
- Basement conversions
- Open-plan alterations
- New build homes
We assess the existing building and proposed alterations before developing structural solutions that can be incorporated into the wider construction works.
Where required, Steadfast SES can also undertake associated Property Extensions, Loft Conversions, Garage Conversions and Structural Alterations, allowing structural engineering and construction to be coordinated through one experienced team.
Structural Surveys
Older properties and buildings showing signs of movement or deterioration may require further structural investigation before repair or alteration work is undertaken.
Our structural survey and assessment services can support projects involving:
- Crack investigations
- Structural movement assessments
- Property condition assessments
- Subsidence-related concerns
- Structural alterations
- Older and period properties
- Pre-construction assessments
A structural assessment can help establish whether further investigation is required and what practical steps may be appropriate.
For wider property development, feasibility and project-planning advice, our Property Consultancy service can provide additional support before building work begins.
RSJ & Steel Beam Design
Removing a load-bearing wall or forming a larger structural opening can require an RSJ or other steel beam to safely support the loads above.
Steadfast SES provides structural calculations and steel beam specifications for these projects, establishing an appropriate structural solution based on the property and proposed alterations.
Where required, our experienced building team can undertake the associated works, including temporary support, load-bearing wall removal, padstone installation and RSJ installation.
This provides clients with a coordinated service that can take a project from structural design and calculations through to practical construction.
