Structural engineering with a difference
Perth-based structural engineers working with architects, designers, builders and owners – from family homes to cyclone-rated facilities in the Pilbara.
Our services
Structural Standard Details & Certification
Do you have a structure that is a standard design that requires regular certification?
Product Certification & Testing
We can certify innovative building materials that do not adhere to the Australian Standards and provide loading assessments.
Expert Witness
We provide expert witness opinion and reports for legal matters relating to building structures, acting for either the owner or the builder.
Retrospective Approvals
For structures built without approval, we can help owners before they have to dismantle them. Call us out to inspect.
Structural Engineering Design
We work with architects, building designers, builders and owner builders to make their projects a reality.
Geotechnical Site Classification
Every project requires a geotechnical investigation before the structural design is undertaken. Let us help.
