How we work

Your engineer stays Engineer of Record. We prepare the design; your firm reviews, seals and submits it for approval.

  1. Send the brief

    Architectural drawings, soil report, loads and the code to use.

  2. Fixed quote in 24 hours

    Scope, deliverables, programme and fee, on a short work order.

  3. Design and drawings

    Model, calculations and drawings prepared in your standards.

  4. Senior check and issue

    Every package is checked before issue, with a check summary for your reviewer.

  5. Your engineer seals

    Comments are turned around promptly; your firm submits for approval.

Design basis report

Loads, combinations, materials, soil parameters and every assumption, stated up front.

Native files

ETABS, SAFE or STAAD models with DWG or Revit drawings, not only PDFs.

Check summary

Governing load cases and critical design ratios, so your review is quick.

Confidential delivery

White-label work under NDA, with no contact with your clients.

PaymentAn advance on project work, with the balance on issue. Retainers are invoiced monthly.
